// Getting Started

Installation

Bootstrap the workspace and install the catalog.

Getting Vender Components into your environment takes two commands. The installer walks you through a short prompt, then pulls every component, workflow, template, and workspace template into your registry.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

RequirementMinimum versionNotes
GitLab16.0Self-managed or SaaS

A GitLab token—api scope required

1. Clone the workspace

git clone https://gitlab.com/arrcade-foss/vender.sh/workspace.git
cd workspace

2. Run the installer

sh install.sh

The installer prompts for a few values:

? GitLab URL ›  https://gitlab.example.com
? GitLab Token ›  ****************

Once confirmed, it pulls the full catalog:

✓ Pulling components ......... 14 pulled
