Adding Install.sh from the repository

[seymourpoler]

Hi, there
First of all, many thanks for all the effort involed, I think that this programming language is amazing and it has a brilliant future.
I have installed the lastest release of this programming language from the repository in my linux x64 machine, but I think that it could be automatized.
Here is the script in bash only for linux-amd64.

#!/bin/bash

# Exit on error
set -e

# Get latest release URL for linux-amd64 from GitHub API
echo "Fetching latest linux-amd64 release info..."
LATEST_URL=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/nature-lang/nature/releases/latest \
  | grep "browser_download_url.*linux-amd64.*tar.gz" \
  | cut -d '"' -f 4)

if [ -z "$LATEST_URL" ]; then
  echo "❌ Could not find linux-amd64 release URL."
  exit 1
fi

echo "Latest release URL: $LATEST_URL"

# Download the tar.gz file
echo "Downloading Nature..."
curl -L "$LATEST_URL" -o nature.tar.gz

# Extract to /usr/local
echo "Extracting to /usr/local..."
sudo tar -xzf nature.tar.gz -C /usr/local

# Clean up
rm nature.tar.gz

# Add to PATH if not already present
if ! grep -q "/usr/local/nature/bin" ~/.bashrc; then
  echo "Updating PATH..."
  echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/nature/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
  source ~/.bashrc
else
  echo "PATH already includes /usr/local/nature/bin"
fi

echo "✅ Nature installed and ready to use!"

Many thanks

I have upgraded the installer script, so we could install nature programming languageon the supported platforms.
Here it is the script

#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -e

# -----------------------------
# Nature ASCII Banner
# -----------------------------
echo " _   _       _                 "
echo "| \\ | | __ _| |_ _   _ _ __    "
echo "|  \\| |/ _\` | __| | | | '_ \\ "
echo "| |\\  | (_| | |_| |_| | | | |  "
echo "|_| \\_|\\__,_|\\__|\\__,_|_| |_| "
echo "          Nature Programming Language"
echo

echo "Starting Nature installer..."

# -----------------------------
# Detect OS
# -----------------------------
OS=$(uname -s | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')

case "$OS" in
  linux) OS="linux" ;;
  darwin) OS="darwin" ;;
  *)
    echo "❌ Unsupported OS: $OS"
    exit 1
    ;;
esac

# -----------------------------
# Detect Architecture
# -----------------------------
ARCH=$(uname -m)

case "$ARCH" in
  x86_64) ARCH="amd64" ;;
  aarch64|arm64) ARCH="arm64" ;;
  riscv64) ARCH="riscv64" ;;
  *)
    echo "❌ Unsupported architecture: $ARCH"
    exit 1
    ;;
esac

echo "Detected: $OS-$ARCH"

# -----------------------------
# Build asset pattern
# -----------------------------
ASSET_PATTERN="${OS}-${ARCH}.*tar.gz"
echo "Looking for asset: $ASSET_PATTERN"

# -----------------------------
# Fetch latest release asset URL
# -----------------------------
LATEST_URL=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/nature-lang/nature/releases/latest \
  | grep "browser_download_url" \
  | grep -i "$ASSET_PATTERN" \
  | cut -d '"' -f 4)

if [[ -z "$LATEST_URL" ]]; then
  echo "❌ Could not find a matching release asset."
  exit 1
fi

echo "Found release: $LATEST_URL"

# -----------------------------
# Download
# -----------------------------
FILE=$(basename "$LATEST_URL")
echo "Downloading $FILE..."
curl -L "$LATEST_URL" -o "$FILE"

# -----------------------------
# Install to /usr/local/nature
# -----------------------------
INSTALL_DIR="/usr/local/nature"

echo "Extracting to $INSTALL_DIR..."
sudo mkdir -p "$INSTALL_DIR"
sudo tar -xzf "$FILE" -C /usr/local

rm "$FILE"

# -----------------------------
# Update PATH
# -----------------------------
PROFILE="$HOME/.bashrc"
[[ "$OS" == "darwin" ]] && PROFILE="$HOME/.zshrc"

if ! grep -q "/usr/local/nature/bin" "$PROFILE"; then
  echo "Updating PATH in $PROFILE..."
  echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/nature/bin:$PATH"' >> "$PROFILE"
fi

echo "✅ Nature installed successfully!"
echo "Restart your terminal to begin using it."

If everybody agrees, I could make a Pull Request with this script.
Many thanks.
