macOS users

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine hub.darwin_amd64

Usage metrics

When you use a pre-built binary from the releases page, it will send usage metrics to HubCTL API and Datadog.

We value your privacy and only send anonymized usage metrics for the following commands:

• elaborate
• deploy
• undeploy
• backup create
• api *

A usage metric sample contains:

• Hub CTL command invoked without arguments, ie. 'deploy' or 'backup create', or 'api instance get'
• synthetic machine id - an UUID generated in first interactive session (stdout is a TTY)
• usage counter - 1 per invocation

Edit $HOME/.hub-cache.yaml to change settings:

    metrics:
      disabled: false
      host: 68af657e-6a51-4d4b-890c-4b548852724d

Set disabled: true to skip usage metrics reporting. Set host: "" to send the counter but not the UUID.

You could always review an up-to-date help via hubctl util metrics -h.
