Cluster Installation
Install Synnax on a variety of operating systems.
This page will walk you through how to install the Synnax binary on Windows, MacOS, and Linux. To get started, select your operating system below:
Installing on Linux
To install Synnax on a Linux distribution, run the following command to download the latest binary:
curl -LO github.com/synnaxlabs/synnax/releases/download/synnax-v0.40.1/synnax-v0.40.1-linuxWe recommend you move the binary into a directory that is in your PATH. Most of our users
use /usr/local/bin:
sudo mv synnax-v0.40.1-linux /usr/local/bin/synnaxIf usr/local/bin is not in your PATH, you can temporarily add it by running
the following:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
Or, you can add it permanently using the following one-liner for your shell:
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin' >> ~/.bashrc
Or, for zsh:
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin' >> ~/.zshrc
If any previous versions of Synnax are installed and available on your PATH, you
may need to remove them to avoid conflicts.
If you’ve also installed the Synnax Python Client,
its synnax command may take precedence over the one you just installed. To
avoid conflicts, rename the binary you’ve just installed to something else, like
synnax-server by running (you may need to use sudo):
mv /usr/local/bin/synnax /usr/local/bin/synnax-server
Then, you can run the binary using synnax-server instead of synnax.
Next, give execution permissions to the binary:
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/synnax
You may need to use sudo to run the above command if you do not have the
necessary permissions.
To verify that the installation was successful, run:
synnax --version
You should see the following output:
Synnax version 0.40.1
