m-cli not installing to specified directory

[colby-swandale]

Hi, thanks for the hard work into this project!

I am trying to install the project into my home folder, the documentation says i can specify a path with INSTALL_DIR but that function does not appear to be working. The following is an example of me trying to install m-cli into ~/.m-cli but is instead being installed into /usr/local/m-cli. I am not sure if the documentation is wrong or if the function is broken. See example below.

c in ~
› INSTALL_DIR=~/.m-cli curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rgcr/m-cli/master/install.sh | sh
Downloading m-cli from git to /usr/local
Cloning into '/usr/local/m-cli'...

Unpacking objects: 100% (38/38), done.
Checking connectivity... done.

Done!

c in ~
› ls -la ~ | grep m-cli

c in ~
› ls -la /usr/local | grep m-cli
drwxr-xr-x   10 c     admin   340 17 Jul 01:30 m-cli

Thanks again!

Hello @colby-swandale , try with this command

INSTALL_DIR=$HOME/.m-cli sh <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rgcr/m-cli/master/install.sh)

and reload your shell again, I will update the readme

Another solution would be to move INSTALL_DIR after the pipe. curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rgcr/m-cli/master/install.sh | INSTALL_DIR=~/.m-cli sh.
