Linux Packages

The most secure option is to create the repositories acccording to the instructions for your specific OS.

A simple installation script is provided to be used for most Linux targets. This will by default install the most recent version released.

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fluent/fluent-bit/master/install.sh | sh

This is purely a convenience helper and should always be validated prior to use.
