Install

Liner ships as the linersh npm package. The package includes the terminal UI plus a bundled per-platform CLI binary, so normal use needs no Python install.

$npx linersh

This opens the interactive terminal UI.

$npm install -g linershliner

Running liner with no arguments opens the terminal UI. Running a subcommand forwards to the bundled CLI core.

Liner 0.5.7 supports:

  • macOS arm64 and x64
  • Linux arm64 and x64
  • Windows x64

Node.js 18 or newer is required.

Some source pages need a browser to render correctly. Enable that support once:

$liner setup-js

This downloads Playwright Chromium for Liner’s local fetcher. The download is about 150 MB and is safe to run again later.

$liner uninstall --yes

This removes Liner’s local cache, npm’s npx execution cache, and Playwright’s Chromium cache. It leaves your mixtape project folders alone.

If you installed globally, also remove the npm package:

$npm uninstall -g linersh
