Introduction

As an end user, we assume you start from a plain vanilla Windows. Toolbox is coming with an embedded lightweight version of Git called MinGit. The following sections will explain how to use Toolbox within your organization.

Install Toolbox

  1. Download as ZIP the source code of this repository.
  2. Extract the content of the ZIP file in a directory in your working drive. We suggest you to name that directory toolbox.

At that stage you have downloaded and extracted the ZIP file into a directory in your working drive. For example: R:\toolbox. Make sure that all files are at the root of toolbox directory without any subdirectories that might come from the extraction. This is to ease URI simplification.

  1. Open toolbox directory in which you have extracted Toolbox in your file explorer.
  2. Double click on setup.bat to start Toolbox installation.

The installation of Toolbox will start. Follow the instructions and wait until the installation has finished.

Check Toolbox Installation

Open a new command prompt and execute the following command:

toolbox version

You should see the running versions of Toolbox and its configuration.

Read Manual Page

Start reading the manual page. In a command prompt execute the following command:

toolbox help

Congratulations

Toolbox is now installed on your local environment.
