Installation Guide

Machine is designed to be easy to install and portable across Linux distributions.

Requirements

  • Linux: Machine is a Linux-first utility.
  • Rust: Only required if installing from source (stable 1.75+ recommended).
  • systemd: Required for service analysis commands.

Installing from Source

This is the recommended method for developers and advanced users.

git clone https://github.com/Feroan101/machine.git
cd machine
./install.sh

The install.sh script will detect your architecture, check for local builds, and install the binary to /usr/local/bin/machine.

Manual Cargo Installation

If you prefer using cargo directly:

cargo install --path .

Manual Download

You can download the latest static binary from the GitHub Releases page.

  1. Download the machine-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz for your architecture.
  2. Extract the archive.
  3. Move the machine binary to your PATH (e.g., /usr/local/bin/).

Updating Machine

To update to the latest version, simply run the installation script again:

cd machine
git pull
./install.sh

Uninstallation

To remove Machine from your system:

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/machine
rm -rf ~/.local/share/machine/
