Remote install script

[js-kyle]

Hi,

I currently install Yarn 1 on TravisCI using the below steps

  - curl -o- -L https://yarnpkg.com/install.sh | bash -s -- --version $v
  - export PATH=$HOME/.yarn/bin:$PATH

Does Yarn 2 have a similar remote install script? The above throws as error as it does not allow rc versions passed by --version. I have tried changing the script, but I can't find where the Yarn 2 tarball files are hosted, as these links now redirect to legacy Yarn

We don't at the moment, and I don't think we will (we now recommend keeping Yarn 1.x as the global binary, and using yarn set version to set the Yarn version on a per-project basis).

The website docs switched to v2 and it doesn't seem to have any of the old install methods listed: https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install

I feel like it was changed prematurely.

I've had to change the url to the legacy site in our documentation. We've been recommending yarn over npm as it causes less issues for casual users.

The website still needs to be updated to account for the change of plan outline in #766 (comment)

It's not working
yarn run v1.21.1 error Command "set" not found. info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.

Use yarn policies set-version [...] for now. The yarn set version [...] alias will be added in a 1.22 release that will contain a few helpers to simplify the transition.

Thanks! But I'm currently on a night build which is 1.22.0xx
