Installation

For Linux and MacOS (x86_64/aarch64)

You can use this automated install script which will install zigverm along with the latest version of Zig

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AMythicDev/zigverm/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

By default it will create $HOME/.zigverm directory as the root folder for zigverm. You can customize this by setting this by setting the ZIGVERM_ROOT_DIR to the directory where you want to install zigverm. Make sire you add the ZIGVERM_ROOT_DIR in your shell config otherwise zigverm would not be able to locate the installation folder.

The script will also put the installation directory's bin folder to your $PATH variable. For this it will append a line to your $HOME/.profile and your shell's rc file. The file for each shell supported is listed below:

  • Bash: $HOME/.bashrc
  • Zsh: $HOME/.zshrc
  • Fish: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fish/config.fish, if not set then uses $HOME/.config/fish/config.fish

For Windows

An automatic installer for Windows is certainly planned however no work has been done for it yet.

  • Create the following folder structure in C:\Users\[YOU-USERNAME]\.zigverm:
.
├── bin
├── downloads
└── installs
  • Download the latest release for Windows from GitHub and extract it.
  • Copy zigverm.exe and zig.exe to the bin/ folder.
  • Add the bin directory to your PATH enviroment variable
