In addition to the changes to ArangoDB, we also changed the package building process for Linux distributions slightly. Besides the standard debian / redhat package for the server, a client-only package is also available.

For example:

    apt-get install arangodb=2.3.2

will install the package consisting of the server and the utilities programs like arangosh. This should not behave any differently compared
to 2.3.1.

If you, however, you only require the arangosh, because your server is running on a different machine, you can now use

    apt-get install arangodb-client=2.3.2

to install only arangosh.

Please let me know, if you encounter any problems with this new package. Please note, that it is not possible to install the normal package and the
client package on one machine, because the normal package already contains the arangosh.

Hi Frank,

Thanks for the update.

Today I was thinking on how to install a arangodb client( like psql in postgresql) on my machine to connect to server which is running on docker container, but didn't get any idea. This update has helped me.

How can I install arangodb client (arangosh) on mac os using mac ports ? Actually I don't have homebrew on my machine.

Thanks & Regards,

Venkat

Hi Venkat,

for the MAC we support homebrew or a a DMG, but no Mac-Ports. Therefore, the easiest way is to get the CLI DMG.
