Installation

Currently Ligo can be installed on Linux and MacOS. It still possible to use it on Windows through WSL or docker.

You can also try LIGO in a Gitpod environment

Releases

Releases are available at the releases page of GitLab project. All the artifacts are attached there.

If you wish to see the changelog, you can either run ligo changelog or go to this page. It contains links to corresponding releases, should you wish to download the artifacts.

Install

Linux binary

The ligo executable is statically linked. It should run on most modern Linux distributions.

You can get the rolling release here, make it executable, and you are done!

wget https://gitlab.com/mavryk-network/ligo/-/jobs/6629577754/artifacts/raw/ligo

chmod +x ./ligo

For a specific version, you can visit our release page.
Optionally, you can put it somewhere in your PATH for easy access:

sudo cp ./ligo /usr/local/bin

MacOS

Try our tap :

brew tap ligolang/ligo https://gitlab.com/mavryk-network/ligo.git

brew install ligolang/ligo/ligo

To upgrade ligo :

brew update

brew upgrade ligolang/ligo/ligo

Debian package

A .deb package containing the static ligo executable is also available. First, download the package, and then install using:

sudo apt install ./ligo.deb

Arch

It's possible to install latest release of ligo through AUR

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/ligo-bin.git

cd ligo-bin

makepkg -si

Or through tools like yay

yay -S ligo-bin

Dockerized

If you've installed 🐳 Docker, you can run the latest LIGO release:

Linux or OSX:

docker run --rm -v "$PWD":"$PWD" -w "$PWD" mavrykdynamics/ligo:1.6.0

For convenience you can alias the above command

alias ligo='docker run --rm -v "$PWD":"$PWD" -w "$PWD" mavrykdynamics/ligo:1.6.0'

To make this alias persistent across terminal sessions you need to configure your shell.
Here is a good link with the steps on how to do that.

Or if you want the development version, replace the version above with next.

Or run one of the older versions found on DockerHub.

Windows

It's possible to use ligo in Docker through docker or WSL2

docker run --rm -v "%CD%":/cd -w /cd mavrykdynamics/ligo:1.6.0`

For convenience you can alias the above command

doskey ligo=docker run --rm -v "%CD%":/cd -w /cd mavrykdynamics/ligo:1.6.0 $*

To make the alias persistent across terminal sessions you need to add the doskey to the Windows Registry.
Follow this stackoverflow answer for the steps on how to do that.
