Installation

TODO: upon release, update this first paragraph.

Because SuperDB is still under construction, GA releases are not yet available. However, you can install a build of the super command-line tool based on code that’s under active development to start tinkering.

Multiple options for installing super are available:

To install the SuperDB Python client, see the Python library documentation.

Homebrew

On macOS and Linux, you can use Homebrew to install super:

brew install --cask brimdata/tap/super

Once installed, run a quick test.

Building From Source

Tip

If you don’t have Go installed, download and install it from the Go install page. Go 1.24 or later is required.

With Go installed, you can easily build super from source:

go install github.com/brimdata/super/cmd/super@main

This installs the super binary in your $GOPATH/bin.

Try It

Once installed, run a quick test.
