Installing on a server (headless)

To install Toolbelt on a server (without a browser):

  1. Install and authenticate cx on your local machine (see above)
  2. Log into your server via your terminal and move to the .cloud66 directory (under home)
  3. Create a file named cx.json in that folder
  4. Go to the terminal on your local machine, where you already have Toolbelt authorised and execute cx dump-token, which will give you your authorisation token
  5. Copy this token and paste it into the (remote) cx.json file that you created in Step 3
  6. Save the file and then run cx stacks list on the server to confirm that Toolbelt is initialised
