## Installation

### Github releases (recommended)

**[Archives of precompiled binaries for orly are available for Windows,
macOS and Linux.](https://github.com/hurlenko/orly/releases)** Linux and
Windows binaries are static executables.

### Cargo

If you're a **Rust programmer**, orly can be installed with `cargo`.

> Note that the minimum supported version of Rust for `orly` is **1.54.0**.

You need to install the development headers of `libxml2` first. The process depends on the OS being used:

- Windows

First install [vcpkg](https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg). After that install `libxml2`:

```bash
    vcpkg install libxml2:x64-windows-static
    ```

Export compiler options to force static linking:
    ```bash
    $env:RUSTFLAGS="-Ctarget-feature=+crt-static"
    ```

- Linux

On linux systems you'd `pkg-config`. For Debian-based distributions:

```bash
    apt-get install libxml2-dev pkg-config
    ```

- macOS
  
    Use `brew` to install `libxml2` and `pkg-config`:

```bash
    brew install libxml2 pkg-config
    ```

Finally install `orly`:

```bash
cargo install orly
```

After installation, the `orly` command will be available. Check the [command line](#command-line-interface) section for supported commands.

## Usage

- You will need an O'Reily account with a non-expired subscription.

- Find the book you want to download and copy its id (the digits at the end of the url).

- Use your credentials or a cookie string to download the book:

```bash
    orly 1234567890 --creds "email@example.com" "password"
    # or
    orly 1234567890 --cookie 'BrowserCookie=....'
    ```
