## A. I want to download a packaged version
|
|
|
|
<style>

tr { vertical-align:top; }

td { padding-bottom:.5em; padding-right:1em; }

td:first-of-type {

/* white-space:nowrap; */
|

/* width:1%; */

}
|
|
a { white-space:nowrap; }

Packaged versions are the quickest to install,
|
|
but they can be out of date or incomplete.

## B. I want to build the latest release
|
|
|
|
The latest release (see [release notes](release-notes.html)) is a good choice.
|
|
|
|
On POSIX systems (mac/linux/freebsd..), use our new hassle-free installer
|
|
to get the current release of hledger and related tools.
|
|
Here's the more secure way:
|
|
|
|
**`curl -sSLO http://hledger.org/hledger-install.sh`** *# (or `wget -qO- ...`; or fetch it from [github](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/blob/master/hledger-install/hledger-install.sh))* \
|
|
**`less hledger-install.sh`** *# (do security review)* \
|
|
**`bash hledger-install.sh`** *# (add `-v` for more detail; use `bash -x` to show commands being run)*
|
|
|
|
and here's the less secure, more convenient way:
|
|
|
|
**`curl -sSL http://hledger.org/hledger-install.sh | bash`**
|
|
|
|
Note this could take significant time (minutes to hours), memory (~2G),
|
|
and disk space (up to a gigabyte) depending on your connection,
|
|
machine and past cabal/stack installations. You can kill and rerun it without losing progress.
|
|
If the installer fails, please help improve it by [reporting](docs.html#helpfeedback) the full output.
|
|
|
|
Or, you can install manually (all systems):
|
|
|
|
1. **Install [haskell `stack`](http://haskell-lang.org/get-started)**\
|
|
\
|
|
Avoid using versions older than 1.0, which give ["Invalid package ID" errors](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/513);
|
|
latest version is good.\
|
|
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).\
|
|
Ensure [`~/.local/bin` (or Windows equivalent) is added to your \$PATH](https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/#path).
|
|
Eg if you're a bash user:\
|
|
`echo "export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin" >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc`
|
|
|
|
2. **`stack install --install-ghc --resolver lts-8 hledger-lib-1.3 hledger-1.3 [hledger-ui-1.3] [hledger-web-1.3] [hledger-api-1.3]`**\
|
|
\
|
|
This command installs the specified hledger packages (and required haskell libraries and tools) from [Stackage](https://www.stackage.org) (and if needed, [Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org)).
|
|
As noted above, it can take a while.
|
|
You can add `--dry-run` to see what it plans to do, and kill/restart it without losing progress.\
|
|
You can omit the bracketed packages to save time, and maybe install them later. If you include them, don't type the brackets.
|
|
hledger-ui is [not yet available on Windows](https://github.com/jtdaugherty/vty/pull/1#issuecomment-297143444).\
|
|
If it gives "Invalid package ID" errors, get a newer version of stack.\
|
|
If you're a [cabal](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/) expert, feel free to use that instead of stack.\
|
|
If you get errors due to missing C libraries (like curses or terminfo), install those manually, eg:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|-----------------|-----------------------------------
|
|
| Debian, Ubuntu: | `sudo apt install libncurses5-dev`
|
|
| Fedora, RHEL: | `sudo dnf install ncurses-devel`
|
|
|
|
If you need to build with an older GHC version for some reason, these commands should work
|
|
(except on Mac Sierra which [requires at least GHC 8.0.2/lts-8](https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12479)):\
|
|
`stack install --resolver lts-7 hledger-lib-1.3 hledger-1.3 hledger-ui-1.3 hledger-web-1.3 hledger-api-1.3 brick-0.19 vty-5.15.1 data-clist-0.1.2.0` *# (GHC 8.0.1)* \
|
|
`stack install --resolver lts-6 hledger-lib-1.3 hledger-1.3 hledger-ui-1.3 hledger-web-1.3 hledger-api-1.3 megaparsec-5.3.1 brick-0.19 vty-5.15.1 data-clist-0.1.2.0 text-zipper-0.10` *# (GHC 7.10.3)* \
|
|
<!-- keep synced with stack.yaml files -->
|
|
|
|
Now you should be able to run `hledger --version`
|
|
(and `hledger-ui --version`, `hledger-web --version` etc. if you installed those)
|
|
and see the version you just installed.

## C. I want to build the development version
|
|
|
|
The latest [master branch](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/commits/master) includes not-yet-released features and is stable enough for daily use.
|
|
|
|
1. **Install [`stack`](http://haskell-lang.org/get-started) and [git](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git)**
|
|
(see notes in B above)
|
|
2. **`git clone http://code.hledger.org hledger`**
|
|
3. **`cd hledger`**
|
|
4. **`stack install`**
|
|
|
|
Cabal users can use the `cabal-install.sh` or `cabal.project` files instead.
|
|
|

|
|
|
## D. I want to install more commands
|
|
|
|
Additional [add-on commands](/hledger.html#third-party-add-ons)
|
|
can be installed. Eg:\
|
|
`stack install hledger-iadd-1.2.1` or `stack install --resolver nightly hledger-iadd`.
|
|
|
|
More, [experimental add-ons](/hledger.html#experimental-add-ons) are
|
|
included in the hledger source repo; to install these:
|
|
|
|
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)
|
|
|
|
Now you should be able to run `hledger iadd --version`, `hledger check --help` etc.
