How to install
This release may arrive in your local packaging system soon - look for green badges at hledger.org: Install.
Or you can build it yourself from source, as described on that page.
Or you can use the binaries below:
GNU/Linux on 64-bit Intel
At the command line,
cd /usr/local/bin
curl -LOC- https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/releases/download/1.33.1/hledger-linux-x64.zip # just rerun if interrupted
unzip hledger-linux-x64.zip && tar xvf hledger-linux-x64.tar && rm -f hledger-linux-x64.{zip,tar} # github workaround, preserves permissions
cd
hledger --version # should show the new version
The tar + zip packaging is a workaround to preserve file permissions.
Mac on 64-bit ARM or Intel
In a terminal window, run these commands to download, unpack, authorise, and install the binaries in your command line PATH.
Don't use your web browser, it won't authorise the binaries.:
cd /usr/local/bin
# for ARM macs:
curl -LOC- https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/releases/download/1.33.1/hledger-mac-arm64.zip # just rerun if interrupted
unzip hledger-mac-arm64.zip && tar xvf hledger-mac-arm64.tar && rm -f hledger-mac-arm64.{zip,tar} # github workaround, preserves permissions
# or for Intel macs:
curl -LOC- https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/releases/download/1.33.1/hledger-mac-x64.zip
unzip hledger-mac-x64.zip && tar xvf hledger-mac-x64.tar && rm -f hledger-mac-x64.{zip,tar}
cd
hledger --version # should show the new version
The tar + zip packaging is a workaround to preserve file permissions.
Windows on 64-bit Intel or ARM
In a powershell window (press Windows-r, type powershell, press enter),
- Make a place to keep hledger binaries, and add it to your PATH; this makes running hledger easier. You only need to do this once, not for every release:
mkdir -force $HOME\bin >$null
$ENV:PATH += ";"+$HOME+"\bin"
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)+";"+$HOME+"\bin", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)
- Download and install the release binaries:
cd $HOME\bin
cp hledger.exe hledger.old.exe # keep a backup of the old executables, if you care
cp hledger-ui.exe hledger-ui.old.exe
cp hledger-web.exe hledger-web.old.exe
curl https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/releases/download/1.33.1/hledger-windows-x64.zip -OutFile hledger-windows-x64.zip
Expand-Archive hledger-windows-x64.zip -DestinationPath . -Force
cd $HOME
hledger --version # should show the new version
hledger-ui --version
hledger-web --version
- Ensure a default journal file exists, and without a problematic encoding.
(Not sure why "ascii" is needed here - hledger likes utf8 and understands utf8 BOM headers..
but the state of our unicode support on Windows
is really unknown, your input welcome.)
out-file -append -encoding ascii $HOME/.hledger.journal
Once that journal file exists, you can start hledger-web by double-clicking on the icon if you wish.
Windows 7 on 64-bit Intel
- click hledger-windows-x64.zip below
- choose Open with Windows Explorer, OK
- click Extract all files
- choose a destination folder - ideally one that appears in
echo %PATH%
, likeC:\Windows
(though that one will require administrator permission); otherwise, your home directory (C:\Users\YOURNAME
) - check "Show extracted files when complete"
- click Extract, wait for the destination folder to open
- find the hledger, hledger-web icons (if you extracted to
\Windows
, you'll need to scroll down) - for each icon: double-click, uncheck "Always ask before opening this file", click Run
- close those Explorer windows
- open a command window (press Windows-r, type CMD, press enter)
hledger --version
should show the new versionecho # >> .hledger.journal
to ensure a default journal file exists. (Important: the doubled >> is needed to avoid overwriting existing data.)
Problems:
- Starting hledger by double-clicking its icon won't work because it needs arguments; run it from the command window instead.
- Starting hledger-web by double-clicking its icon may fail eg because Explorer's command window is too small;
configure that to be larger, or run hledger-web from a command window instead. - hledger or hledger-web may fail to run if there is not enough memory available.
Once installed, run hledger
, and perhaps read hledger.org: Quick start.
