Installing Maestro

Installing the CLI

{% hint style="info" %} Using Windows? Follow this guide to get set up on a Windows machine: Installing Maestro on Windows {% endhint %}

Run the following command to install Maestro on macOS, Linux or Windows (WSL):

curl -fsSL "https://get.maestro.mobile.dev" | bash

If you're on macOS, you can use Homebrew instead of the install script above:

brew tap mobile-dev-inc/tap
brew install maestro

Upgrading the CLI

Simply run the installation script again:

curl -fsSL "https://get.maestro.mobile.dev" | bash

Installing a specific version of Maestro

To install a specific version, export the MAESTRO_VERSION environment variable and run the same installation command as before:

export MAESTRO_VERSION={version}; curl -Ls "https://get.maestro.mobile.dev" | bash

See the list of available versions.

Installing a specific version of Maestro in a Dockerfile

Define a variable for the version you want to install:

ENV MAESTRO_VERSION {version}

Then download Maestro and add it to your path:

RUN mkdir -p /opt/maestro && \
wget -q -O /tmp/${MAESTRO_VERSION} "https://github.com/mobile-dev-inc/maestro/releases/download/cli-${MAESTRO_VERSION}/maestro.zip" && \
unzip -q /tmp/${MAESTRO_VERSION} -d /opt/ && \
rm /tmp/${MAESTRO_VERSION}
ENV PATH=/opt/maestro/bin:${PATH}
