Ending support for macOS x64 pre-built binaries​

Since 2020, macOS has transitioned from Intel (x64 architecture) to Apple Silicon (arm64 architecture) processors.

Additionally, Cardano node version 10+ now supports only Apple Silicon on macOSX.

As a result, the Mithril team will end support for macOS x64 pre-built binaries for the client CLI starting March 2025.

From this date, CI will no longer build these binaries for GitHub releases. If you are still using macOS x64, you will need to build the binaries from source.

For any inquiries or assistance, contact the team on the Discord channel.

One line installer for Mithril binaries​

To simplify the installation and updating of Mithril binaries, we have created a one line installer that downloads and installs the Mithril binaries for you. This installer is available for Linux and macOS and supports the Mithril signer, Mithril aggregator, and Mithril client CLI.

The one line command is also displayed in the various Download the pre-built binary sections across the documentation.

Examples of the one line installer​

  • Download the latest Mithril signer in the current directory:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/input-output-hk/mithril/refs/heads/main/mithril-install.sh | sh -s -- -c mithril-signer -d latest -p $(pwd)
  • Download the latest Mithril client CLI in the current directory:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/input-output-hk/mithril/refs/heads/main/mithril-install.sh | sh -s -- -c mithril-client -d latest -p $(pwd)
  • Download the unstable Mithril aggregator in the current directory:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/input-output-hk/mithril/refs/heads/main/mithril-install.sh | sh -s -- -c mithril-aggregator -d unstable -p $(pwd)
  • Download the Mithril client of distribution 2445.0 in the current directory:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/input-output-hk/mithril/refs/heads/main/mithril-install.sh | sh -s -- -c mithril-client -d 2445.0 -p $(pwd)

Installer usage​

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/input-output-hk/mithril/refs/heads/main/mithril-install.sh | sh -s -- -h

Install or upgrade a Mithril node
Usage: sh [-n node] [-v version] [-d distribution] [-p path]
  -c node          : Mithril node to install or upgrade (mithril-signer, mithril-aggregator, mithril-client)
  -d distribution  : Distribution to upgrade to (latest, unstable or distribution version e.g '2445.0')
  -p path          : Path to install the component
