-signal-cli is a commandline interface for [libsignal-service-java](https://github.com/WhisperSystems/libsignal-service-java). It supports registering, verifying, sending and receiving messages. To be able to receiving messages signal-cli uses a [patched libsignal-service-java](https://github.com/AsamK/libsignal-service-java), because libsignal-service-java [does not yet support registering for the websocket support](https://github.com/WhisperSystems/libsignal-service-java/pull/5). For registering you need a phone number where you can receive SMS or incoming calls.
-It is primarily intended to be used on servers to notify admins of important events. For this use-case, it has a dbus interface, that can be used to send messages from any programming language that has dbus bindings.

+## Installation
+
+You can [build signal-cli](#building) yourself, or use the [provided binary files](https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/releases/latest), which should work on Linux, macOS and Windows. For Arch Linux there is also a [package in AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/signal-cli/) and there is a [FreeBSD port](https://www.freshports.org/net-im/signal-cli) available as well. You need to have at least JRE 11 installed, to run signal-cli.
+
+### Install system-wide on Linux
+See [latest version](https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/releases).
+```sh
+export VERSION=<latest version, format "x.y.z">
+wget https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/releases/download/v"${VERSION}"/signal-cli-"${VERSION}".tar.gz
+sudo tar xf signal-cli-"${VERSION}".tar.gz -C /opt
+sudo ln -sf /opt/signal-cli-"${VERSION}"/bin/signal-cli /usr/local/bin/
+```

 ## Usage
 
 
 ## Usage
 

-usage: signal-cli [-h] [-u USERNAME] [-v] {register,verify,send,quitGroup,updateGroup,receive} ...
+Important: The USERNAME (your phone number) must include the country calling code, i.e. the number must start with a "+" sign. (See [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_country_calling_codes) for a list of all country codes.)

 
 * Register a number (with SMS verification)
 
         signal-cli -u USERNAME register
 
 * Register a number (with SMS verification)
 
         signal-cli -u USERNAME register

+        
+  You can register Signal using a land line number. In this case you can skip SMS verification process and jump directly to the voice call verification by adding the --voice switch at the end of above register command.

 
 

-* Register a number (with voice verification)
-
-        signal-cli -u USERNAME register -v
-
-* Verify the number using the code received via SMS or voice
+* Verify the number using the code received via SMS or voice, optionally add `--pin PIN_CODE` if you've added a pin code to your account

 
         signal-cli -u USERNAME verify CODE
 
 
         signal-cli -u USERNAME verify CODE
 

-* Send a message to one or more recipients
+* Send a message

 
 

-        signal-cli -u USERNAME send -m "This is a message" [RECIPIENT [RECIPIENT ...]] [-a [ATTACHMENT [ATTACHMENT ...]]]
+        signal-cli -u USERNAME send -m "This is a message" RECIPIENT

 
 * Pipe the message content from another process.
 
 
 * Pipe the message content from another process.
 

-        uname -a | signal-cli -u USERNAME send [RECIPIENT [RECIPIENT ...]]
+        uname -a | signal-cli -u USERNAME send RECIPIENT

         
 * Receive messages
 
         signal-cli -u USERNAME receive
 
         
 * Receive messages
 
         signal-cli -u USERNAME receive
 

-* Groups
-
- * Create a group
-
-          signal-cli -u USERNAME updateGroup -n "Group name" -m [MEMBER [MEMBER ...]]
-
- * Update a group
-
-          signal-cli -u USERNAME updateGroup -g GROUP_ID -n "New group name"
-
- * Send a message to a group
-
-          signal-cli -u USERNAME send -m "This is a message" -g GROUP_ID
-
-## DBus service
-
-signal-cli can run in daemon mode and provides an experimental dbus interface.
-For dbus support you need jni/unix-java.so installed on your system (Debian: libunixsocket-java ArchLinux: libmatthew-unix-java (AUR)).
-
-* Run in daemon mode (dbus session bus)
-
-          signal-cli -u USERNAME daemon
-
-* Send a message via dbus
-
-          signal-cli --dbus send -m "Message" [RECIPIENT [RECIPIENT ...]] [-a [ATTACHMENT [ATTACHMENT ...]]]
-
-### System bus
-
-To run on the system bus you need to take some additional steps.
-It’s advisable to run signal-cli as a separate unix user, the following steps assume you created a user named *signal-cli*.
-These steps, executed as root, should work on all distributions using systemd.
-
-```bash
-cp data/org.asamk.Signal.conf /etc/dbus-1/system.d/
-cp data/org.asamk.Signal.service /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/
-cp data/signal.service /etc/systemd/system/
-sed -i -e "s|%dir%|<INSERT_INSTALL_PATH>|" -e "s|%number%|<INSERT_YOUR_NUMBER>|" /etc/systemd/system/signal.service
-systemctl daemon-reload
-systemctl enable signal.service
-systemctl reload dbus.service
-```
-
-Then just execute the send command from above, the service will be autostarted by dbus the first time it is requested.
