Binaries

If Docker is not an option, use binaries from the Web UI or GitHub Releases.

From Web UI

When your Nebula Commander instance is deployed with client binaries included (for example the frontend image built with DOWNLOAD_BINARIES=1), the Web UI can serve them.

1. Open your Nebula Commander URL in a browser and log in.
2. Go to the downloads or client section (or open https://YOUR_SERVER/downloads/ if your instance serves that path).
3. Download the binary for your platform:
   • Linux x86_64: ncclient-linux-amd64
   • Linux ARM64: ncclient-linux-arm64
   • Windows x86_64: ncclient-windows-amd64.exe
   • macOS Intel: ncclient-macos-amd64
   • macOS Apple Silicon: ncclient-macos-arm64
4. Place the file in a directory on your PATH (or add that directory to PATH). On Linux and macOS, make it executable: chmod +x ncclient-linux-amd64 (or the file you downloaded).

If your instance does not serve binaries, use From releases or Pip (PyPI) instead.

From releases

Pre-built binaries are attached to GitHub Releases for each version.

1. Open the releases page and choose a version (e.g. the latest).
2. Download the file for your platform (same names as in From Web UI).
3. Optionally verify with SHA256SUMS.txt in the same release.
4. Place the binary in a directory on your PATH (or add that directory to PATH). On Linux and macOS, make it executable: chmod +x ncclient-linux-amd64 (or the file you downloaded).
