Installation guide
*******************
Download and extract precompiled binary for your OS and platform from `the releases page on GitHub <https://github.com/ansible/receptor/releases>`_
Alternatively, you can compile Receptor from source code (Golang 1.22+ required)
.. code-block:: bash
make receptor
Test the installation with the following commands:
.. code-block:: bash
receptor --help
receptor --version
The preferred way to interact with Receptor nodes is to use the ``receptorctl`` command line tool
.. code-block:: bash
pip install receptorctl
``receptorctl`` will be used in various places throughout this documentation.
