## Installing / upgrading
### Binaries
- Latest stable release [v1.26.0](https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/releases/latest)
- Development releases (follows master) can be downloaded [here](https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/actions) selecting the latest green build and then artifacts.
To install or upgrade just download the latest [binary](https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/releases/latest). On \*nix platforms you may need to make the binary executable - you can do this by running `chmod a+x` on the binary (example: `chmod a+x matterbridge-1.24.1-linux-64bit`). After downloading (and making the binary executable, if necessary), follow the instructions on the [howto](https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/wiki/How-to-create-your-config) for a step by step walkthrough for creating your configuration.
### Packages
- [Overview](https://repology.org/metapackage/matterbridge/versions)
- [snap](https://snapcraft.io/matterbridge)
- [scoop](https://github.com/42wim/scoop-bucket)
## Building
Most people just want to use binaries, you can find those [here](https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/releases/latest)
If you really want to build from source, follow these instructions:
Go 1.18+ is required. Make sure you have [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) properly installed.
Building the binary with **all** the bridges enabled needs about 3GB RAM to compile.
You can reduce this memory requirement to 0,5GB RAM by adding the `nomsteams` tag if you don't need/use the Microsoft Teams bridge.
Matterbridge can be build without gcc/c-compiler: If you're running on windows first run `set CGO_ENABLED=0` on other platforms you prepend `CGO_ENABLED=0` to the `go build` command. (eg `CGO_ENABLED=0 go install github.com/42wim/matterbridge`)
To install the latest stable run:
```bash
go install github.com/42wim/matterbridge
```
To install the latest dev run:
```bash
go install github.com/42wim/matterbridge@master
```
To install the latest stable run without msteams or zulip bridge:
```bash
go install -tags nomsteams,nozulip github.com/42wim/matterbridge
```
You should now have matterbridge binary in the ~/go/bin directory:
```bash
$ ls ~/go/bin/
matterbridge
```
## Building with whatsapp (beta) multidevice support
Because the library we use for Whatsapp multidevice support includes a GPL3 library we can not provide you binaries.
(as this would require the Matterbridge to change it license to GPL)
Matterbridge can be build without gcc/c-compiler: If you're running on windows first run `set CGO_ENABLED=0` on other platforms you prepend `CGO_ENABLED=0` to the `go build` command. (eg `CGO_ENABLED=0 go install github.com/42wim/matterbridge`)
So this means you have to build it yourself using the instructions below:
```bash
go install -tags whatsappmulti github.com/42wim/matterbridge@master
```
If you're low on memory and don't need msteams:
```bash
go install -tags nomsteams,whatsappmulti github.com/42wim/matterbridge@master
```
You should now have matterbridge binary in the ~/go/bin directory:
```bash
$ ls ~/go/bin/
matterbridge
```
