# Installation
|
||||
Solana provides a CLI tool for key generation called `solana-keygen`. Here are 3
|
||||
different options for installations.
|
||||
|
||||
## Option 1: via Solana Install Script
|
||||
Install the Solana CLI tools on your machine by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/solana-labs/solana/v0.21.1/install/solana-install-init.sh | sh -s - 0.21.1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The following output indicates a successful update:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
looking for latest release
|
||||
downloading v0.21.1 installer
|
||||
Configuration: /home/solana/.config/solana/install/config.yml
|
||||
Active release directory: /home/solana/.local/share/solana/install/active_release
|
||||
* Release version: 0.21.1
|
||||
* Release URL: https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/releases/download/v0.21.1/solana-release-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
|
||||
Update successful
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can now verify that `solana-keygen` was installed by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
solana-keygen -h
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After a successful install, `solana-install update` may be used to easily update
|
||||
the cluster software to a newer version at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 2: via Rust Cargo
|
||||
First, install Rust's package manager `cargo`
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
|
||||
$ source $HOME/.cargo/env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then, install the `solana-keygen` tool
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cargo install solana-keygen
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can now verify that `solana-keygen` was installed by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
solana-keygen -h
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 3: via Tarball
|
||||
First download the desired release tarball from GitHub. The examples below will
|
||||
retrieve the most recent release. If you would like to download a specific
|
||||
version instead replace `latest/download` with `download/VERSION` where VERSION
|
||||
is a tag name from https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/releases (ie. v0.21.0).
|
||||
|
||||
MacOS
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ curl -L -sSf -o solana-release.tar.bz2 'https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/releases/latest/download/solana-release-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.bz2'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Linux
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ curl -L -sSf -o solana-release.tar.bz2 'https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/releases/latest/download/solana-release-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.bz2'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Next, extract the tarball
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ tar xf solana-release.tar.bz2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, `solana-keygen` can be run by
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ solana-release/bin/solana-keygen
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like to follow the remainder of these instructions without typing
|
||||
the leading path to `solana-keygen`, add it to your PATH environment variable
|
||||
with the following command
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ export PATH="$(pwd)/solana-release/bin:${PATH}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
This can be made permanent by adding it to your `~/.profile`
