Linux

Run the following command to download and install ossutil:
```
sudo -v ; curl https://gosspublic.alicdn.com/ossutil/install.sh | sudo bash
```
Note
- The ossutil package must be decompressed before it can be installed. Make sure that you have installed an appropriate decompression tool, such as unzip or 7z.
- By default, ossutil is installed in the /usr/bin/ directory.
Configure ossutil.
1. Run the following command to configure ossutil:
```
ossutil config
```
2. Configure the path of the configuration file.
```
Specify the name of the configuration file. The name of the configuration file can contain the file path. The default name of the configuration file is /home/user/.ossutilconfig. If you press the Enter key without specifying a path, the default path is used. 
If you want to store the file in another path, set the --config-file option to the path.
```
  By default, ossutil saves the configuration file as /home/user/.ossutilconfig. If you specify a different path for the configuration file, add the -c option to specify the configuration file each time you run an ossutil command. For example, if you save the configuration file as /home/config, add the -c option in the following format when you run the ls command:
```
ossutil ls oss://examplebucket -c /home/config
```
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to specify the display language of ossutil. Enter EN. By default, ossutil is displayed in the language that is used by the OS. The configuration takes effect after the config command is successfully run.
4. Configure access credentials. If you want to configure long-term access credentials, configure the AccessKey ID and AccessKey Secret parameters and leave the STSToken parameter empty. For more information about how to create an AccessKey pair and select an endpoint, see Obtain an AccessKey pair and Regions and endpoints. For more information about how to configure ossutil, see Run the config command to quickly configure ossutil.
  Note
  You can implement temporary authorization by using security tokens provided by Security Token Service (STS). For more information, see Use temporary access credentials provided by STS to access OSS.
  After you obtain temporary access credentials, provide them when you configure the SecurityToken, AccessKey ID, and AccessKey Secret parameters.
