# <img align="center" src="./docs/images/logo.png"> AutoRest
The **AutoRest** tool generates client libraries for accessing RESTful web services. Input to *AutoRest* is a spec that describes the REST API using the [OpenAPI Specification](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification) format.
<!-- 1) returns SVGs now which aren't rendered by GitHub 2) seems to be awfully unresponsive and unreliable lately

## Support Policy
AutoRest is an open source tool -- if you need assistance, first check the documentation. If you find a bug or need some help, feel free to submit an [issue](https://github.com/Azure/autorest/issues)
**AutoRest will release a stable version on the second Wednesday of the month.**
Using `npm` you can upgrade to the latest stable version of AutoRest:
---
# Installing AutoRest
Installing AutoRest on Windows, MacOS or Linux involves two steps:
1. __Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/)__ (10.15.x LTS HIGHLY RECOMENDED)
> for more help, check out [Installing Node.JS on different platforms](./docs/developer/workstation.md#nodejs)
2. __Install AutoRest__ using `npm`
``` powershell
# Depending on your configuration you may need to be elevated or root to run this. (on OSX/Linux use 'sudo' )
npm install -g autorest
```
### Updating AutoRest
To update AutoRest if you have previous versions installed, please run:
``` powershell
autorest --latest
```
or
```powershell
# Removes all other versions and installs the latest
autorest --reset
```
For more information, run `autorest --help`
### Supported Platforms
While AutoRest itself runs on NodeJS, some generators use the .NET Core 2.0 runtime, which is the most limiting factor.
See [dotnet/core/release-notes/2.0/2.0-supported-os.md](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/release-notes/2.0/2.0-supported-os.md) for a list of supported platforms.
