Before installing etcd, see the following pages:
The easiest way to install etcd is from pre-built binaries:
Download the compressed archive file for your platform from Releases, choosing release v3.4.35 or later.
Unpack the archive file. This results in a directory containing the binaries.
Add the executable binaries to your path. For example, rename and/or move
the binaries to a directory in your path (like /usr/local/bin
), or add the
directory created by the previous step to your path.
From a shell, test that etcd
is in your path:
$ etcd --version
etcd Version: 3.4.35
...
If you have Go version 1.2+, you can build etcd from source by following these steps:
Download the etcd repo as a zip file and unzip it, or clone the repo using the following command.
$ git clone -b v3.4.35 https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd.git
To build from main@HEAD
, omit the -b v3.4.35
flag.
Change directory:
$ cd etcd
Run the build script:
$ ./build
The binaries are under the bin
directory.
Add the full path to the bin
directory to your path, for example:
$ export PATH="$PATH:`pwd`/bin"
Test that etcd
is in your path:
$ etcd --version
For a slightly more involved sanity check of your installation, see Quickstart.
