Install/Update Binaries

curl https://laktak.github.io/chkbit.sh|bash

This will download the chkbit binary for your OS/Platform from the GitHub releases page and install it to ~/.local/bin. You will get a message if that’s not in your PATH.

You probably want to download or view the setup script before piping it to bash.

If you prefer you can download a binary from github.com/laktak/chkbit/releases manually and place it in your PATH.

Install via Homebrew (macOS and Linux)

For macOS and Linux it can also be installed via Homebrew:

$ brew install chkbit

Install via Go

$ go install github.com/laktak/chkbit/v6/cmd/chkbit@latest

Build from Source

$ ls -l chkbit/chkbit
