Roku Developer Program

Can anyone please tell me on how to deploy a roku .zip file without using the installation plugin . I have seen on many place using the makefile  , but how to implement it in my codes.

Here's a bash script to zip and deploy a Scenegraph app

#you need to define username, password, and IP to match your environment
user=myUsername
pass=myPassword
roku_ip=x.x.x.x

#delete previous zips
rm -fv out/*

#generate zip for device
zip -r out/app.zip  manifest source images components

#push zip to Roku
uagent='Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)';
curl --user $user:$pass --digest --verbose --max-time 5 --user-agent "$uagent" --form archive=@app.zip --form "mysubmit=Replace" "http://$roku_ip/plugin_install" > /dev/null

exit 0

Another option, for anyone using the Atom text editor, is to use the roku-develop package, which will automatically discover Rokus on the local network, and create/deploy .zip files to any/all of those Rokus.

See also https://stackoverflow.com/a/45405595/226086 - it's in the style of @tim_beynart's but slightly more polished from long use.

sorry for this question , but i don't have much info on bash, can anyone tell me on how to use or deploy bash file to install an aplication.

Save yourself some grief and do what belltown mentioned, use Atom to develop for Roku. The deploy package is actually more reliable than bash/curl.

@Sechin - first, are you using Windows?
We had some discussion but did not produce a simple script https://forums.roku.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=97279

Having bash is by far not required to develop with command-line tools for Roku on Windows - but might be the path of least resistance, because borrowing other people's scripts for OSX and Linux
