Upgrade the ddlctl command line

First, you must determine the version of ddlctl you want to upgrade to. You can find the latest version on the releases page. Next, follow these steps:

Set some environment variables to make the download process easier:

export VERSION={version from release page}
export OS={darwin|linux}
export ARCH={arm64|x86_64}

Download the ddlctl binary for your operating system and architecture with the following script:
wget https://mirrors.domino.tech/s3/domino-artifacts/ddlctl/${VERSION}/ddlctl_${VERSION}_${OS}_${ARCH}.tar.gz
For example, if you are installing ddlctl for Domino 6.3.0, per the releases page, you would run the following command to fetch the command line tool (0.6.4) for that version (assuming you are on a Linux machine with an ARM64 architecture):
wget https://mirrors.domino.tech/s3/domino-artifacts/ddlctl/0.6.4/ddlctl_0.6.4_linux_arm64.tar.gz

Extract the binary from the tarball:

tar -xvf ddlctl_${VERSION}_${OS}_${ARCH}.tar.gz

Move the binary to a directory in your PATH, such as /usr/local/bin:
mv ddlctl_${VERSION}_${OS}_${ARCH}/ddlctl /usr/local/bin

The Docker Engine API is required for certain ddlctl operations, such as ddlctl create config. Configure the Docker Engine API to ensure ddctl operates correctly.
