Binboi Docs/Getting Started/Installation

Installation

Install the Binboi CLI on your machine. The CLI is a single static binary with no runtime dependencies.

System Requirements

| Requirement | Minimum | |---|---| | OS | macOS 12+, Linux (glibc 2.17+), Windows 10+ | | Architecture | x86_64, arm64 | | Disk | ~15 MB |

macOS

Homebrew (recommended)

brew install binboi/tap/binboi

Direct download

# Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3)
curl -fsSL https://dl.binboi.dev/latest/darwin-arm64/binboi -o /usr/local/bin/binboi
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/binboi
 
# Intel
curl -fsSL https://dl.binboi.dev/latest/darwin-amd64/binboi -o /usr/local/bin/binboi
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/binboi

See the macOS guide for Gatekeeper and PATH notes.

Linux

Install script (recommended)

curl -fsSL https://dl.binboi.dev/install.sh | sh

The script detects your architecture, downloads the correct binary to /usr/local/bin/binboi, and sets execute permissions.

Manual download

# x86_64
curl -fsSL https://dl.binboi.dev/latest/linux-amd64/binboi -o /usr/local/bin/binboi
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/binboi
 
# arm64
curl -fsSL https://dl.binboi.dev/latest/linux-arm64/binboi -o /usr/local/bin/binboi
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/binboi

APT (Debian / Ubuntu)

echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://apt.binboi.dev stable main" \
  | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/binboi.list
sudo apt update && sudo apt install binboi

See the Linux guide for systemd service setup.

Windows

WinGet

winget install Binboi.CLI

Scoop

scoop bucket add binboi https://github.com/binboi/scoop-bucket
scoop install binboi

Manual installer

Download binboi-windows-amd64.exe from the releases page, rename it to binboi.exe, and place it somewhere on your PATH (e.g. C:\Program Files\Binboi\).

npm (all platforms)

If you already have Node.js 18+, you can install the CLI wrapper via npm:

npm install -g @binboi/cli

This downloads the correct platform binary and wires up the binboi command automatically.

Verify the Installation

binboi --version
# binboi 1.0.0
 
binboi --help

Upgrading

# Homebrew
brew upgrade binboi
 
# npm
npm update -g @binboi/cli
 
# Install script (re-run)
curl -fsSL https://dl.binboi.dev/install.sh | sh
