https://cfengine-package-repos.s3.amazonaws.com/enterprise/Enterprise-3.18.2/misc/CFEngine_Enterprise_vagrant_quickstart-3.18.2-1.tar.gzIf you want to get a list of URLs for nightly packages from an LTS branch, specify the branch name as the version:
cf-remote --version 3.18.x listAvailable releases: master, 3.20.0, 3.18.x, 3.18.2, 3.18.1, 3.18.0, 3.15.x, 3.15.6, 3.15.5, 3.15.4, 3.15.3, 3.15.2, 3.15.1, 3.15.0, 3.15.0b1
Using 3.18.x LTS:
http://buildcache.cfengine.com/packages/testing-pr/jenkins-3.18.x-nightly-pipeline-325/PACKAGES_HUB_x86_64_linux_debian_9/cfengine-nova-hub_3.18.3a.33cc458e4~22969.debian9_amd64.deb
[...]Tip: Replacing list with download will download all the packages in the list, for cached use in other commands or for you to use manually.
(Filenames are printed, files are stored in ~/.cfengine/cf-remote/packages/).
Tags and filtering
You can provide a space separated list of tags to filter the list. For example, if you want the URL for the very latest Enterprise Linux Hub package specify master as the version and add el7 hub.
cf-remote --version master list el7 hub amd64Available releases: master, 3.20.0, 3.18.x, 3.18.2, 3.18.1, 3.18.0, 3.15.x, 3.15.6, 3.15.5, 3.15.4, 3.15.3, 3.15.2, 3.15.1, 3.15.0, 3.15.0b1
Using master:
http://buildcache.cfengine.com/packages/testing-pr/jenkins-master-nightly-pipeline-1113/PACKAGES_HUB_x86_64_linux_redhat_7/cfengine-nova-hub-3.21.0a.3c9610266-22964.el7.x86_64.rpmCommunity
Of course, you can get CFEngine Community packages this way as well, just specify community as the edition:
cf-remote --version master list --edition community el7Available releases: master, 3.20.0, 3.18.x, 3.18.2, 3.18.1, 3.18.0, 3.15.x, 3.15.6, 3.15.5, 3.15.4, 3.15.3, 3.15.2, 3.15.1, 3.15.0, 3.15.0b1
Using master LTS:
http://buildcache.cfengine.com/packages/testing-pr/jenkins-community-nightly-master-158/PACKAGES_x86_64_linux_redhat_7/cfengine-community-3.21.0a.432050af6-22949.el7.x86_64.rpmOther assets
You can even get other assets like the the default policy set (Masterfiles Policy Framework):
cf-remote --version master list masterfilesAvailable releases: master, 3.20.0, 3.18.x, 3.18.2, 3.18.1, 3.18.0, 3.15.x, 3.15.6, 3.15.5, 3.15.4, 3.15.3, 3.15.2, 3.15.1, 3.15.0, 3.15.0b1
Using master:

cf-remote --version master list vagrantAvailable releases: master, 3.20.0, 3.18.x, 3.18.2, 3.18.1, 3.18.0, 3.15.x, 3.15.6, 3.15.5, 3.15.4, 3.15.3, 3.15.2, 3.15.1, 3.15.0, 3.15.0b1
Using master:
http://buildcache.cfengine.com/packages/testing-pr/jenkins-master-nightly-pipeline-1113/PACKAGES_x86_64_linux_redhat_7/../vagrant_quickstart/builds/CFEngine_Enterprise_vagrant_quickstart-3.21.0a-1.tar.gzcf-remote can do more than list URLs, install it and give it a try!
Nightly packages for CFEngine Community can also be found on our website, under Resources -> Downloads -> Nightly packages.
