Installing the Domino CLI in a Workspace or with batch job

Issue

I need to install the Domino CLI in a Workspace

I want to install the domino cli, on Linux, automatically

Can I install the Domino CLI on a headless install?

Resolution

The Linux installer can be run using scripts but you'll need to run it using bash.

From the command line you can install it using:

echo -e "\n\n\n" | ./domino-default-unix.sh -c

However, you will need to install java first, i.e:

apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless

If you get an error on AtkWrapper, comment out:

/etc/java-8-openjdk/accessibility.properties assistive_technologies line:

sed -i 's/^assistive_technologies=/#assistive_technologies=/g' /etc/java-8-openjdk/accessibility.properties

From a Dockerfile:

### Add Domino CLI
RUN apt-get install --yes openjdk-8-jre
RUN wget https://novo-sce.domino-eval.com/download/client/unix -O /tmp/domino-install-unix.sh 
USER ubuntu
RUN printf 'o\n\n\n\n' | sh /tmp/domino-install-unix.sh
USER root
RUN ln -s /home/ubuntu/domino/domino /usr/local/bin/domino

Notice

Domino does not formally support the Domino CLI in a headless environment and YMMV
