| ## B. I want to build the latest release | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The latest release (see [release notes](release-notes.html)) is a good choice. | ||||
| You have to build it, but that's pretty easy.  | ||||
| You have to build it, but normally that should be quite easy: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. Install [`stack`](http://haskell-lang.org/get-started). | ||||
|    On Windows, the 64-bit version is [recommended](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/275#issuecomment-123834252). | ||||
| 1. **Install [`stack`](http://haskell-lang.org/get-started)**\ | ||||
|    Note some packaged versions of stack are too old and will give ["Invalid package ID"](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/513) in step 2 | ||||
|    (and their builtin "upgrade" command will be slow); in this case consider downloading the binary instead.\ | ||||
|    On Windows, the 64-bit version is [recommended](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/275#issuecomment-123834252).\ | ||||
|    On Arch, you [may need to also install GHC manually](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/434).\ | ||||
|    <small>(If you're a [`cabal`](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/) expert, feel free to use that instead, adapting these instructions appropriately.)</small> | ||||
|    You should also add [~/.local/bin (or Windows equivalent)](https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/#path) | ||||
|    to your \$PATH so that you can easily run stack-installed tools. | ||||
|    Eg if you're a bash user:\ | ||||
|    `echo "export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin" >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2. `stack install --resolver=nightly hledger [hledger-ui] [hledger-web] [hledger-api]`\ | ||||
|    Note you don't type the square brackets; they mean "this bit is optional". | ||||
|    So eg if you don't care about the web tools, you would type `stack install --resolver=nightly hledger hledger-ui`\ | ||||
|    On Windows, hledger-ui is [not yet available](https://github.com/coreyoconnor/vty/pull/1).\ | ||||
| 2. **`stack install hledger-lib-1.2 hledger-1.2 [hledger-ui-1.2] [hledger-web-1.2] [hledger-api-1.2]`**\    | ||||
|    Note specifying the version as above forces stack to select exactly this version,  | ||||
|    which is sometimes necessary just after a release; | ||||
|    at other times the following command may be preferable  | ||||
|    [to](https://www.stackage.org/package/hledger-lib) | ||||
|    [get](https://www.stackage.org/package/hledger) | ||||
|    [any](https://www.stackage.org/package/hledger-ui) | ||||
|    [newer](https://www.stackage.org/package/hledger-web) | ||||
|    [versions](https://www.stackage.org/package/hledger-api):\ | ||||
|    `stack install --resolver=nightly hledger [hledger-ui] [hledger-web] [hledger-api]`\ | ||||
|    If stack says you need to run `stack setup`, do that first.\ | ||||
|    Warnings about "No packages found in snapshot which provide a "hsc2hs" executable" can be ignored.\ | ||||
|    If required C libraries (like curses) are not installed, you might need to install those manually and try again, eg: | ||||
|    Don't type the square brackets; they mean that hledger-ui etc. are optional.\ | ||||
|    On Windows, hledger-ui is [not yet available](https://github.com/coreyoconnor/vty/pull/1).\ | ||||
|    If required C libraries (like curses or terminfo) are not installed, you might need to install those manually and try again. | ||||
|    Eg: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     | | ||||
|     |--------------------|----------------------------------- | ||||
|     | **Debian, Ubuntu:** | `sudo apt install libncurses5-dev`  | ||||
|     | **Fedora, RHEL:**   | `sudo dnf install ncurses-devel` | ||||
|     |-----------------|----------------------------------- | ||||
|     | Debian, Ubuntu: | `sudo apt install libncurses5-dev`  | ||||
|     | Fedora, RHEL:   | `sudo dnf install ncurses-devel` | ||||
|     | ||||
| If you're a [`cabal`](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/) expert, feel free to use that instead of stack, adapting these instructions appropriately. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Now you should be able to run `hledger --version`, `hledger-ui --version` etc. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 3. If stack warns that `~/.local/bin` (or the Windows equivalent) is not in `$PATH`, fix that. | ||||
|    Eg if you're a bash user:\ | ||||
|    `echo "export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin" >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc`\ | ||||
|    Now you can run `hledger --version`, `hledger-ui --version` etc. | ||||

| ## D. I want to install all add-on commands | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Some experimental commands are not built in to hledger, but | ||||
| [included in the source](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/tree/master/bin) as | ||||
| [add-on commands](http://hledger.org/hledger.html#add-on-commands), such as:\ | ||||
| `chart`, | ||||
| `check-dates`, | ||||
| `check-dupes`, | ||||
| `equity`, | ||||
| `print-unique`, | ||||
| `register-match`, | ||||
| `rewrite`. | ||||
| Additional [add-on commands](http://hledger.org/hledger.html#add-on-commands) can be installed with stack  | ||||
| (hledger-diff, | ||||
| hledger-iadd, | ||||
| hledger-interest, | ||||
| hledger-irr), as in B above. | ||||
| Eg: `stack install hledger-iadd-1.2.1` or `stack install --resolver nightly hledger-iadd`. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| To install these and make them available in hledger's commands list: | ||||
| Others, more experimental, are [included](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/tree/master/bin) | ||||
| in the hledger source repo; to install these: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. Install [`stack`](http://haskell-lang.org/get-started) and [git](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git) (see above) | ||||
| 2. `git clone http://code.hledger.org hledger` (as above) | ||||
| 3. `cd hledger` | ||||
| 4. `bin/compile.sh` (optional, makes them start faster) | ||||
| 5. add the hledger `bin/` directory to your `$PATH` | ||||
| 1. **Download the hledger source code** (as in C above) | ||||
| 2. **In the hledger directory, run `bin/compile.sh`** (installs dependencies, compiles for speed) | ||||
| 3. **Add the `hledger/bin/` directory to your `$PATH`** (as in B above) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| There is also a `hledger-autosync` symbolic link showing how to make | ||||
| the [ledger-autosync](https://gitlab.com/egh/ledger-autosync) tool available | ||||
| as a hledger command. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Other commands are published as separate packages:\ | ||||
| `hledger-diff`, | ||||
| `hledger-iadd`, | ||||
| `hledger-interest`, | ||||
| `hledger-irr`. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Some are available in Stackage and can be installed with stack as in B above: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| `stack install --resolver nightly hledger-iadd hledger-interest` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Others are available only on Hackage, so you must specify the Hackage version number. Eg: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| `stack install hledger-diff-0.2.0.7 hledger-irr-0.1.1.10` | ||||
| Now you should be able to run `hledger iadd --version`, `hledger check --help` etc. | ||||
