How to install Rill

macOS

On macOS, we recommend installing rill using Homebrew:

brew install rilldata/tap/rill

Alternatively, you can install rill using our installation script:

curl -s https://cdn.rilldata.com/install.sh | bash

Verify that the installation succeeded:

rill --help

Linux

On Linux, we recommend installing rill using the installation script:

curl -s https://cdn.rilldata.com/install.sh | bash

Verify that the installation succeeded:

rill --help

Nightlies

On both macOS and Linux, you can install the latest nightly build using the installation script:

curl -s https://cdn.rilldata.com/install.sh | bash -s -- --nightly

Note for macOS users: If you previously installed Rill using brew, the brew-managed binary will take precedent. You can remove it by running brew uninstall rill.

Manual install

You can download platform-specific binaries from our releases page on Github. A manual download will not make Rill Developer globally accessible, so you'll need to reference the full path of the binary when executing CLI commands.

macOS

If you see a warning when opening the Rill macos-arm64 binary you need to change the permissions to make it executable and remove it from Apple Developer identification quarantine.

chmod a+x rill
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ./rill
