Installing the Hasura CLI¶
Table of contents
Install a binary globally¶
In your Linux shell, run the following command:
curl -L https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/raw/stable/cli/get.sh | bash
This will install the Hasura CLI in /usr/local/bin. You might have to provide
your sudo password depending on the permissions of your /usr/local/bin location.
If you’d prefer to install to a different location other than /usr/local/bin, set the
INSTALL_PATH variable accordingly:
curl -L https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/raw/stable/cli/get.sh | INSTALL_PATH=$HOME/bin bash
You can also install a specific version of the CLI by providing the VERSION variable:
curl -L https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/raw/stable/cli/get.sh | VERSION=v2.0.6 bash
In your Terminal, run the following command:
curl -L https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/raw/stable/cli/get.sh | bash
This will install the Hasura CLI in /usr/local/bin. You might have to provide
your sudo password depending on the permissions of your /usr/local/bin location.
If you’d prefer to install to a different location other than /usr/local/bin, set the
INSTALL_PATH variable accordingly:
curl -L https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/raw/stable/cli/get.sh | INSTALL_PATH=$HOME/bin bash
You can also install a specific version of the CLI by providing the VERSION variable:
curl -L https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/raw/stable/cli/get.sh | VERSION=v2.0.6 bash
Download the binary cli-hasura-windows-amd64.exe available under Assets of the latest release
from the GitHub release page: https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/releases
Rename the downloaded file to hasura.
You can add the path to the environment variable PATH for making hasura accessible globally.
Install through npm¶
Hasura CLI is available as an npm package that is independently maintained by some members of the community. It can be beneficial to use the npm package if you want a version-fixed cli dedicated to your node.js project. You can find usage details (e.g. flag information) in the original repository.
# install as a devDependency of your project
npm install --save-dev hasura-cli[@tag|@version]
# or install globally on your system
npm install --global hasura-cli[@tag|@version]
(Optional) Add shell completion¶
To add command auto completion in the shell, refer to hasura completion.
