Installing Grant

Official builds

The Anchore OSS team publish official source archives and binary builds for Linux and macOS. There are also some community-maintained builds of the tools for different platforms.

Installer script

Grant binaries are provided for Linux and macOS.

curl -sSfL https://get.anchore.io/grant | sudo sh -s -- -b /usr/local/bin

Install script options:

  • -b: Specify a custom installation directory (defaults to ./bin)
  • -d: More verbose logging levels (-d for debug, -dd for trace)
  • -v: Verify the signature of the downloaded artifact before installation (requires cosign to be installed)

GitHub releases

  • Download the file for your operating system and architecture from the GitHub releases page
  • In the case of .deb or .rpm, install them using your package manager
  • For compressed archives, unpack the file, and copy the grant binary to a folder in your path such as /usr/local/bin
