up is the official CLI for interacting with Upbound Cloud and Universal
Crossplane (UXP).
up can be downloaded by using the official installation script, or can be
installed via a variety of common package managers.
curl -sL https://cli.upbound.io | sh
brew install upbound/tap/up
Deb and RPM packages are available for Linux platforms, but currently require manual download and install.
curl -sLo up.deb https://cli.upbound.io/stable/${VERSION}/deb/linux_${ARCH}/up.deb
curl -sLo up.rpm https://cli.upbound.io/stable/${VERSION}/rpm/linux_${ARCH}/up.rpm
Users typically begin by either logging in to Upbound Cloud or installing UXP.
up uses profiles to manage sets of credentials for interacting with Upbound
Cloud. You can read more about how to manage multiple profiles in the
configuration documentation. If no --profile flag is provided when logging
in the profile designated as default will be updated, and if no profiles exist a
new one will be created with name default and it will be designated as the
default profile.

up can install UXP into any Kubernetes cluster, or upgrade an existing
Crossplane installation to UXP of compatible version. UXP versions with the
same major, minor, and patch number are considered compatible (e.g. v1.2.1 of
Crossplane is compatible with UXP v1.2.1-up.N)
To install the latest stable UXP release:
up uxp install
To upgrade a Crossplane installation to a compatible UXP version:
up uxp install vX.Y.Z-up.N -n <crossplane-namespace>
