Installation

Choose the installation method that works best for your system.

Install Latest Version​

The fastest way to get started with systemg:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://sh.sysg.dev/ | sh

Install Specific Version​

To install a specific version of systemg:

# Install version 0.15.6
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://sh.sysg.dev/ | sh -s -- --version 0.15.6

# Short form
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://sh.sysg.dev/ | sh -s -- -v 0.15.6

Switch Between Versions​

If you have multiple versions installed, you can switch between them:

# Switch to version 0.15.5 (downloads if not already installed)
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://sh.sysg.dev/ | sh -s -- -v 0.15.5

How It Works​

The installation script:

  • Downloads the systemg binary for your platform
  • Installs to ~/.sysg/versions/VERSION/
  • Creates a symlink at ~/.sysg/bin/sysg to the active version
  • Adds ~/.sysg/bin to your PATH (if not already present)
  • Manages multiple versions side-by-side

Install from Source​

If you prefer to build from source or want the latest development version:

cargo install sysg

Requirements:

  • Rust toolchain (install via rustup)
  • Git (to clone the repository)

Verify Installation​

After installation, verify that systemg is working correctly:

sysg --version

You should see output similar to:

systemg 0.6.8
