Install

Prebuilt everywhere: Homebrew, container image, release tarballs, and cargo-binstall. No toolchain, no compiling.

Dataglot ships prebuilt on every channel — you never need a compiler or a toolchain. All binaries are the dataglot server with the default connectors built in (Postgres, MySQL, Iceberg, Snowflake, OData, REST, plus object storage, which is always available).

Pick one:

brew install dataglotai/tap/dataglot

docker pull ghcr.io/dataglotai/dataglot:latest

cargo binstall --git https://github.com/dataglotai/dataglot dataglot-server

Homebrew (macOS / Linux)

Every GitHub Release ships a rendered formula covering macOS arm64/x86_64 and Linux arm64/x86_64. The installed binary is dataglot.

Container image

docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:5432:5432 ghcr.io/dataglotai/dataglot:latest

Which image, which tag

There is one image — ghcr.io/dataglotai/dataglot — and no variants to choose between. It is multi-arch (linux/amd64 and linux/arm64, each built natively), runs on a distroless base as a non-root user, and includes the operational dashboard.

Tag	What it points at	Use it for
`latest`	the newest release	trying Dataglot out
`0.5.0`	one exact release	production — pin this
`0.5` · `0`	newest patch / newest minor in that line	you want fixes but not surprises
`main` · a short commit SHA	the tip of the default branch, or one commit	reproducing a specific build

The image is also rebuilt nightly, so latest and the current release tags pick up base-image security patches without a version bump.

When the image is not enough

The Oracle and ADBC connectors, distributed execution (Ballista), and Flight SQL are not compiled into the published image — they need a C runtime, protoc, or a driver you supply. Their configuration is still recognised, so a kind = "oracle" catalog fails at boot with a clear error rather than a confusing one. To use them, build from source.

Release tarballs

From GitHub Releases: dataglot-<version>-<target>.tar.gz + .sha256 for

aarch64-apple-darwin (Apple Silicon)
x86_64-apple-darwin (Intel Mac)
aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

tar xzf dataglot-<version>-<target>.tar.gz
./dataglot-<version>-<target>/dataglot --help

cargo-binstall

Resolves the same prebuilt binaries straight from GitHub Releases — no compilation involved. The crate is dataglot-server; the installed binary is dataglot.

Next step

Head to the quickstart — from a fresh binary to a governed, federated query in about five minutes. If you would rather understand the model first, start with how Dataglot works.
