Manage your Connect applications with a CLI.

The Connect CLI allows you to access, create, and manage Connectors and Connect applications.

# Requirements

To use the Connect CLI, you must utilize the following:

- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en)
  - If you are using macOS, [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) is required to install Node.js.
- [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm)
- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)

# Install the Connect CLI

To install the Connect CLI globally, use the following command:

```bash
npm install -g @commercetools/cli
```

You can verify the installation and find further information using the following command:

```bash
commercetools --help
```

To check the CLI version, use the following command:

```bash
commercetools --version
```
