While dokku does not yet have an official client, there are a multitude of ways in which you can interact with your dokku installation. The easiest is to use the **bash** client, though you may wish to use another.

Alternatively, if using another shell such as **zsh**, create an alias command which invokes the script using **bash**:
```shell
# zsh: add the following to either .zshenv or .zshrc
alias dokku='bash $HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
# fish: add the following to ~/.config/fish/config.fish
alias dokku 'bash $HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
# csh: add the following to .cshrc
alias dokku 'bash $HOME/.dokku/contrib/dokku_client.sh'
```
Configure the `DOKKU_HOST` environment variable or run `dokku` from a repository with a git remote named dokku pointed at your dokku host in order to use the script as normal.
