You may install D2 through any of the following methods.
The recommended and easiest way to install is with our install script, which will detect the OS and architecture you're on and use the best method:
# With --dry-run the install script will print the commands it will use
# to install without actually installing so you know what it's going to do.
curl -fsSL https://d2lang.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run
# If things look good, install for real.
curl -fsSL https://d2lang.com/install.sh | sh -s --
For help on the terminal run, including the supported package managers and detection methods:
curl -fsSL https://d2lang.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --help
If you're on macOS, you can install with brew
.
brew tap terrastruct/d2
brew install d2
The install script above does this automatically if you have
brew
installed and are running it on macOS.
We publish standalone release archives for every release on Github.
Download the .tar.gz
release for your OS/ARCH combination and then run the following
inside the extracted directory to install:
make install
Run the following to uninstall:
make uninstall
If root permissions are required for installation, you'll need to run make
with sudo
.
You can control the Unix hierarchy installation path with PREFIX=
. For example:
# Install under ~/.local.
# Binaries will be at ~/.local/bin
# And manpages will be under ~/.local/share/man
# And supporting data like icons and fonts at ~/.local/share/d2
make install PREFIX=$HOME/.local
The install script places the standalone release into $PREFIX/lib/d2/d2-<version>
and we recommend doing the same with manually installed releases so that you
know where the release directory is for easy uninstall.
warn: Our binary releases aren't fully static like normal Go binaries due to the C dependency on v8go for executing dagre. If you're on an older system with an old libc, you'll want to install from source.
You can always install from source:
go install oss.terrastruct.com/d2/cmd/d2@latest
- Docker image
- Windows install
- rpm and deb packages
- with repositories and standalone
- homebrew core
