GitHub¶
You may download the Box PHAR directly from the GitHub release directly. You should however beware that it is not as secure as downloading it from the other mediums. Hence, it is recommended to check the signature when doing so:
# Do adjust the URL if you need a release other than the latest
wget -O box.phar "https://github.com/box-project/box/releases/latest/download/box.phar"
wget -O box.phar.asc "https://github.com/box-project/box/releases/latest/download/box.phar.asc"
# Check that the signature matches
gpg --verify box.phar.asc box.phar
# Check the issuer (the ID can also be found from the previous command)
gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys 41539BBD4020945DB378F98B2DF45277AEF09A2F
rm box.phar.asc
