Installation

Prerequisites

Before installing Latchkey, make sure you have:

• Curl

• Node

• npm

If you need to install Node.js, download it from nodejs.org or use a version manager like nvm.

Installation

Install globally via npm:

npm install -g latchkey

Quick check

1. Browser setup: If you plan to use browser-based authentication (like run latchkey auth browser), then run:

latchkey ensure-browser

This will:

• Search for Chrome/Chromium/Edge on your system

• Configure Latchkey to use the found browser

• Download Chromium via Playwright if no compatible browser is found

1. Verify the installation by running:

latchkey --version

You should see a version number (e.g. 1.0.0).
