Note from the shelf row: run it the day before a maintenance window

Before you install

  • Runs on: Windows, Linux, macOS. the application must be 4.0.7 to 4.1.6.
  • Space: about 2.0 MB for the download, plus [WORKING SPACE] while it runs.
  • Rights: an ordinary user account; no elevation needed
  • Know first: [PREREQUISITE] — what has to be true before this tool will run at all.

Download and verify

Take the build for your platform from the [SHARE] and check it against the digest on the shelf row before you unpack anything.

certutil -hashfile leafpack-0.8-win64.zip
md5sum leafpack-0.8-linux-x64.tar.gz
md5 leafpack-0.8-macos.tar.gz

Expected: 18f96714dcf8. The shelf row carries the same digest.

Install

Copy it into place and put it on the path. Nothing here installs a service or a scheduled task.

Windows

Unpack the zip, then:

xcopy leafpack-0.8-win64 C:\Tools\leafpack /E /I
setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Tools\leafpack"
leafpack --version

Linux

Unpack it and link it onto the path:

sudo tar -xzf leafpack-0.8-linux-x64.tar.gz -C /opt
sudo ln -sf /opt/leafpack/leafpack /usr/local/bin/leafpack
leafpack --version

macOS

Unpack it and link it onto the path:

sudo tar -xzf leafpack-0.8-macos.tar.gz -C /opt
sudo ln -sf /opt/leafpack/leafpack /usr/local/bin/leafpack
leafpack --version

Check it worked

Check the version first, then run the one command the tool exists for:

leafpack --version
leafpack quota --path . --warn-under 15
8% free — a rebuild will not finish here

Expected output is the line shown above; anything else means [TO DO: write the failure list].

Removing it

Delete the folder and drop the path entry. The tool keeps no state of its own.

rmdir /s /q C:\Tools\leafpack
sudo rm -rf /opt/leafpack /usr/local/bin/leafpack
sudo rm -rf /opt/leafpack /usr/local/bin/leafpack

If it goes wrong

  • [KNOWN FAILURE 1] — the usual fixes for this tool have not been written down yet. Add them the second time somebody hits one.
  • Wrong error number or a fault you cannot name: run the tool's own diagnostic first (shelf row).
  • Before any repair that writes to a store, take the export — backoff is the tool for it.
