Installation

The Portex agent is a standalone binary. You can install it using our automated scripts which handle OS detection, architecture matching, and path configuration.

Automatic Installation

macOS & Linux

curl -fsSL https://portex.space/install.sh | bash

This script downloads the correct binary for your system (Intel/Apple Silicon or x64 Linux) and moves it to /usr/local/bin.

Windows (PowerShell Admin)

iwr https://portex.space/install.ps1 | iex

This will install Portex to %USERPROFILE%\.portex\bin and add it to your System PATH.

Manual Downloads

If you prefer to manage the binary yourself, you can download them directly from the homepage "Install" section for your specific platform.

Verification

Once installed, verify the installation by checking the version:

        portex version
        # Output: Portex
            version 0.7.1
    

Upgrade note To upgrade Portex, simply re-run the installation script. It will overwrite the old binary with the latest stable version.
