# Installation

> Install defi-cli from release artifacts, Go, or source.

## Quick install (macOS/Linux)

```bash theme={null}
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ggonzalez94/defi-cli/main/scripts/install.sh | sh
```

Install a specific version:

```bash theme={null}
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ggonzalez94/defi-cli/main/scripts/install.sh | sh -s -- v0.5.0
```

## Go install

```bash theme={null}
go install github.com/ggonzalez94/defi-cli/cmd/defi@latest
```

## Build from source

```bash theme={null}
git clone https://github.com/ggonzalez94/defi-cli.git
cd defi-cli
go build -o defi ./cmd/defi
```

## Verify install

```bash theme={null}
defi version --long
defi --help
```

## Optional shell completion

```bash theme={null}
defi completion zsh > ~/.zsh/completions/_defi
defi completion bash > ~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions/defi
defi completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/defi.fish
```

## API key setup

Use environment variables (recommended):

```bash theme={null}
export DEFI_1INCH_API_KEY=...
export DEFI_UNISWAP_API_KEY=...
export DEFI_JUPITER_API_KEY=...
export DEFI_DEFILLAMA_API_KEY=...
export DEFI_BUNGEE_API_KEY=...
export DEFI_BUNGEE_AFFILIATE=...
```

Most routes do not require keys. `DEFI_JUPITER_API_KEY` is optional and mainly useful for higher Jupiter API limits. See [Providers and Auth](/concepts/providers-and-auth) for route-level requirements.
