Installing Kasetto

Installation Methods

Pick whichever method works for you — standalone installer, package manager, or straight from source.

The quickest way to get started — downloads and installs the binary in one command:

Use curl to download the script and execute it with sh:

curl -fsSL kasetto.dev/install | sh

The installation script may be inspected before use:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pivoshenko/kasetto/main/scripts/install.sh | less

Alternatively, binaries can be downloaded directly from GitHub Releases.

The binary lands in ~/.local/bin by default. Override it with environment variables:

Variable	Description	Default
`KASETTO_VERSION`	Version tag to install	Latest release
`KASETTO_INSTALL_DIR`	Installation directory	`~/.local/bin` (Unix) / `%USERPROFILE%\.local\bin` (Windows)

Available via a Homebrew tap:

brew install pivoshenko/tap/kasetto

Available via a Scoop bucket on Windows:

scoop bucket add kasetto https://github.com/pivoshenko/scoop-bucket
scoop install kasetto

Available on crates.io:

cargo install kasetto

This builds from source, so you'll need a compatible Rust toolchain.

Prefer to grab a binary directly? Head to GitHub Releases — every release includes binaries for all supported platforms.

Clone and install with Cargo:

git clone https://github.com/pivoshenko/kasetto && cd kasetto
cargo install --path .

If you used the standalone installer, updating is a one-liner:

kst self update

For Homebrew or Cargo installs, use the package manager's own upgrade command. For example, with Cargo:

cargo install kasetto

You can run echo $SHELL to help determine your shell.

To get tab completions for kst, add one of these to your shell config:

echo 'eval "$(kst completions bash)"' >> ~/.bashrc

Then restart your shell or source the config file.

Check out the quick start, or jump straight to the configuration reference if you already know what you want.
