# Install Tendermint
The fastest and easiest way to install the `tendermint` binary
is to run [this script](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/scripts/install/install_tendermint_ubuntu.sh) on
a fresh Ubuntu instance,
or [this script](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/scripts/install/install_tendermint_bsd.sh)
on a fresh FreeBSD instance. Read the comments / instructions carefully (i.e., reset your terminal after running the script,
make sure your okay with the network connections being made).
## From Binary
To download pre-built binaries, see the [releases page](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/releases).
## From Source
You'll need `go` [installed](https://golang.org/doc/install) and the required
[environment variables set](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/wiki/Setting-GOPATH)
### Get Source Code
```
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint
git clone https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint.git
cd tendermint
```
### Get Tools & Dependencies
```
make get_tools
make get_vendor_deps
```
### Compile
```
make install
```
to put the binary in `$GOPATH/bin` or use:
```
make build
```
to put the binary in `./build`.
The latest `tendermint version` is now installed.
## Reinstall
If you already have Tendermint installed, and you make updates, simply
```
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint
make install
```
To upgrade, run
```
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint
git pull origin master
make get_vendor_deps
make install
```
## Run
To start a one-node blockchain with a simple in-process application:
```
tendermint init
tendermint node --proxy_app=kvstore
```

Install Tendermint
==================
The fastest and easiest way to install the ``tendermint`` binary
is to run `this script <https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/scripts/install/install_tendermint_ubuntu.sh>`__ on
a fresh Ubuntu instance,
or `this script <https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/develop/scripts/install/install_tendermint_bsd.sh>`__
on a fresh FreeBSD instance. Read the comments / instructions carefully (i.e., reset your terminal after running the script,
make sure your okay with the network connections being made).
From Binary
-----------
To download pre-built binaries, see the `releases page <https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/releases>`__.
From Source
-----------
You'll need ``go`` `installed <https://golang.org/doc/install>`__ and the required
`environment variables set <https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/wiki/Setting-GOPATH>`__
Get Source Code
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint
git clone https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint.git
cd tendermint
Get Tools & Dependencies
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::
make get_tools
make get_vendor_deps
Compile
^^^^^^^
::
make install
to put the binary in ``$GOPATH/bin`` or use:
::
make build
to put the binary in ``./build``.
The latest ``tendermint version`` is now installed.
Reinstall
---------
If you already have Tendermint installed, and you make updates, simply
::
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint
make install
To upgrade, there are a few options:
- set a new ``$GOPATH`` and run
``go get github.com/tendermint/tendermint/cmd/tendermint``. This
makes a fresh copy of everything for the new version.
- run ``go get -u github.com/tendermint/tendermint/cmd/tendermint``,
where the ``-u`` fetches the latest updates for the repository and
its dependencies
- fetch and checkout the latest master branch in
``$GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint``, and then run
``make get_vendor_deps && make install`` as above.
Note the first two options should usually work, but may fail. If they
do, use ``dep``, as above:
::
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint
make get_vendor_deps
make install
Since the third option just uses ``dep`` right away, it should always
work.
Run
^^^
To start a one-node blockchain with a simple in-process application:
::
tendermint init
tendermint node --proxy_app=kvstore
