## Get the Latest Pebble Tool
|
|
|
|
The `pebble` tool allows you to quickly switch between different SDK versions.
|
|
The instructions to obtain the tool vary depending on your platform. All
|
|
specific instructions are shown on this page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Mac OS X
|
|
|
|
The Pebble SDK can be installed automatically using Homebrew, or manually if
|
|
preferred. If you already use at least version 4.0 of the `pebble` tool, you can
|
|
install the latest SDK by running the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pebble sdk install latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### With Homebrew
|
|
|
|
If you previously used Homebrew to install older Pebble SDKs, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ brew update && brew upgrade pebble-sdk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you've never used Homebrew to install the Pebble SDK, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ brew update && brew install pebble/pebble-sdk/pebble-sdk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Without Homebrew
|
|
|
|
If you would prefer to not use Homebrew and would like to manually install the
|
|
Pebble SDK:
|
|
|
|
1. Download the
|
|
[SDK package]({{ site.links.pebble_tool_root }}pebble-sdk-{{ site.data.sdk.pebble_tool.version }}-mac.tar.bz2).
|
|
|
|
2. Follow the [Mac manual installation instructions](/sdk/install/mac/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Linux
|
|
|
|
Linux users should install the SDK manually using the instructions below:
|
|
|
|
1. Download the relevant package:
|
|
[Linux (32-bit)]({{ site.links.pebble_tool_root }}pebble-sdk-{{ site.data.sdk.pebble_tool.version }}-linux32.tar.bz2) |
|
|
[Linux (64-bit)]({{ site.links.pebble_tool_root }}pebble-sdk-{{ site.data.sdk.pebble_tool.version }}-linux64.tar.bz2).
|
|
|
|
2. Install the SDK by following the
|
|
[manual installation instructions](/sdk/install/linux/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Windows
|
|
|
|
Installing the Pebble SDK on Windows is not officially supported at this time.
|
|
However, you can choose from alternative strategies to develop watchfaces and
|
|
watchapps on Windows, which are detailed below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Use CloudPebble
|
|
|
|
[CloudPebble]({{site.links.cloudpebble}}) is the official online development
|
|
environment for writing Pebble apps. It allows you to create, edit, build and
|
|
distribute applications in your web browser without installing anything on your
|
|
computer.
|
|
|
|
**Pebble strongly recommends [CloudPebble]({{site.links.cloudpebble}}) for
|
|
Windows users.**
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Use a Virtual Machine
|
|
|
|
You can also download and run the Pebble SDK in a virtual machine.
|
|
|
|
1. Install a virtual machine manager such as
|
|
[VirtualBox](http://www.virtualbox.org) (free) or
|
|
[VMWare Workstation](http://www.vmware.com/products/workstation/).
|
|
2. Install [Ubuntu Linux](http://www.ubuntu.com/) in a virtual machine.
|
|
3. Follow the standard [Linux installation instructions](/sdk/install/linux/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Testing Beta SDKs
|
|
|
|
Beta SDKs are released in the run up to stable SDK releases, and give interested
|
|
developers a chance to test out new features and APIs and provide feedback.
|
|
|
|
You can opt-in to the beta channel to receive beta SDKs. Once the beta period ends,
|
|
you will be notified of the update to the final stable version.
|
|
|
|
<div class="alert alert--fg-white alert--bg-dark-red">
|
|
{% markdown %}
|
|
**IMPORTANT**
|
|
|
|
Apps built with a beta SDK **must not** be uploaded to the developer portal, as
|
|
users not yet on the new firmware version will be unable to install them.
|
|
{% endmarkdown %}
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Once you have the latest `pebble` tool, you can easily access and try out new
|
|
beta SDKs we release from time to time by switching to the 'beta' sdk channel:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pebble sdk set-channel beta
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Install the latest beta SDK:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pebble sdk install latest
|
|
```
|
