Installation

Ory software runs on any operating system (FreeBSD, macOS, Linux, Windows, ...) and supports all major CPU platforms (ARM64, ARMv7, x86_64, x86, ...).

Ory provides pre-built binaries, Docker Images and support various package managers:

Install Ory Hydra on Linux using bash <(curl ...):

bash <(curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ory/meta/master/install.sh) -d -b . hydra <version-you-want>
./hydra help

You may want to move Ory Hydra to your $PATH:

sudo mv ./hydra /usr/local/bin/

Docker

Ory Hydra is available as a Docker Image for all major platforms (ARM64, AMD64, ...):

Download Binaries

You can download the client and server binaries on our Github releases page. No installer is available. You have to add the binary to the PATH in your environment yourself, for example by putting it into/usr/local/bin or something comparable.

Once installed, you should be able to run:

hydra help

Building from Source

If you wish to compile the binary yourself, you need to install and set up Go 1.17+ and add $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH.
