CS Script on Linux

Deploying CS-Script

CS-Script requires Mono v5.0.1 or higher.
Note that since Mono is hosted on the custom package repository it's not included into cs-scrip[t package as a dependency and you wil be required to install it manually with 'sudo apt-get install mono-complete'. See http://www.mono-project.com/download for details.

Note, CS-Script has a built-in update functionality. For already installed CS-Script package you can always trigger updating with the `-update` switch:

sudo cscs -update

Manual installation

• Ensure you have Mono v5.0.1 or higher.

• Copy binaries (cscs.exe, CSSRoslynProvider.dll) into /usr/lib/cs-script/bin (or /usr/local/lib/cs-script/bin). The binaries are available from the following GitHub locations:
  https://github.com/oleg-shilo/cs-script/blob/master/Source/Build/cscs.exe
  https://github.com/oleg-shilo/cs-script/blob/master/Source/Build/CSSRoslynProvider.dll

• Add execute permission to the script engine executable:

  sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/cs-script/bin/cscs.exe
  

• Create symlink to the script engine file:

  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/cs-script/bin/cscs.exe /usr/bin/cscs
