Installation

Github releases (recommended)

Archives of precompiled binaries for orly are available for Windows, macOS and Linux. Linux and Windows binaries are static executables.

Cargo

If you're a Rust programmer, orly can be installed with cargo.

> Note that the minimum supported version of Rust for `orly` is **1.54.0**.

You need to install the development headers of libxml2 first. The process depends on the OS being used:

  • Windows

    First install vcpkg. After that install libxml2:

    vcpkg install libxml2:x64-windows-static
    

    Export compiler options to force static linking:

    $env:RUSTFLAGS="-Ctarget-feature=+crt-static"
    
  • Linux

    On linux systems you'd pkg-config. For Debian-based distributions:

    apt-get install libxml2-dev pkg-config
    
  • macOS

    Use brew to install libxml2 and pkg-config:

    brew install libxml2 pkg-config
    

Finally install orly:

cargo install orly

After installation, the orly command will be available. Check the command line section for supported commands.
