Installation

Thermostat can be installed using the command curl -4 https://api.thermostat.fahrenheit.io/install.sh | bash. In order for this to work, the user must be authorized to access the Thermostat API via an employee record or a server user record (see here for more details). The public IP address of the computer you are running the command from must match the IP address specified on the user's employee record or server user record. You can see the code for this installation script here.

Thermostat also provides the curl -4 https://api.thermostat.fahrenheit.io/serverinit.sh | bash and curl -4 https://api.thermostat.fahrenheit.io/employeeserverinit.sh | bash scripts that can be used to intialize a bare VPS or employee development machine with a standard configuration that we use on our servers.
