The original cloudmonkey was written in Python and contributed to Apache CloudStack project by Rohit Yadav on 31 Oct 2012 under the Apache License 2.0. The Python-based tool is now referred to as the legacy cloudmonkey and can be installed using pip install cloudmonkey.
Docs for legacy cloudmonkey: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/CloudStack+cloudmonkey+CLI
Starting version 6.0.0, the modern cloudmonkey cmk is a fast and simplified Go-port of the original tool with some backward incompatibilities and reduced feature set. It ships as a standalone 64-bit executable binary for several platforms such as Linux, Mac and Windows.
To install the modern Apache CloudStack cloudmonkey or cmk, please download the binary from the latest release: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-cloudmonkey/releases
Download the binary for Linux or Mac based on your platform and move it to a directory that is on $PATH such as /usr/local/bin. For example:
sudo wget <file link> -O /usr/local/bin/cmk
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/cmk
Download the Windows specific .exe executable file and copy it to a directory which on the cmd's PATH such as C:\Windows\System32\. Launch cmd.exe or powershell and see if you can run/access cmk.exe.
