2. Build Guide

2.1 Install Rust

We recommend installing Rust using rustup. You can install rustup as follows:

  • macOS or Linux:

    curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
  • Windows (64-bit):

    Download the Windows 64-bit executable and follow the on-screen instructions.

  • Windows (32-bit):

    Download the Windows 32-bit executable and follow the on-screen instructions.

2.2a Build from Homebrew (for macOS)

For macOS users, we recommend installing wagyu via Homebrew as follows:

brew install wagyu

2.2b Build from Crates.io

We recommend installing wagyu this way. In your terminal, run:

cargo install wagyu

Now to use wagyu, in your terminal, run:

wagyu

2.2c Build from Source Code

Alternatively, you can install wagyu by building from the source code as follows:

# Download the source code
git clone https://github.com/AleoHQ/wagyu
cd wagyu

# Build in release mode
$ cargo build --release

This will generate an executable under the ./target/release directory. To use wagyu, run the following command:

./target/release/wagyu
