Installing Wrasm

Installing from Pre-Built Binaries

As wrasm is currently in development, there are no packages or provided binaries. Once wrasm is ready for its first release, it will be available via the GitHub releases page.

If you downloaded wrasm pre-built, you must install it manually. Simply copy the wrasm executable to /usr/local/bin on Unix or to C:\Program Files\wrasm\bin on Windows and ensure the executable is on your system path.

Installing from Compiled Source

First see build for building wrasm from source.

Once you have built wrasm, run the following from the build directory.

meson install

[!NOTE] You do not need to run the meson compile step as meson will automatically build wrasm for you if it has not already been done when you try to install it.

This will install the wrasm executable binary to /usr/local/bin on Unix based systems, or C:\Program Files\wrasm\bin on Windows.

[!NOTE] Installing wrasm will require elevated privileges (administrator on Windows or sudo on Linux)

Installing to a different directory

To set the install prefix, run the following command before meson install

meson configure ./path/to/build/dir --prefix $HOME/.local

Installing Manually

To install wrasm manually, just copy the wrasm executable located in the root of the build directory to your installation location of choice.

Other Installation Configurations

For more complicated install configurations, also see the meson docs on installing.

This documents features such as DEST_DIR support.
