brew tap probe-rs/probe-rs
brew install probe-rs

cargo binstall probe-rs-tools

To build probe-rs from source, you will need a working Rust toolchain. The easiest way is to follow the rustup installation instructions.

On Debian and derived distros (e.g. Ubuntu), the following packages need to be installed:

sudo apt install -y pkg-config libudev-dev cmake git

dnf install libusbx-devel libudev-devel cmake git

No additional setup is required.

Download and install cmake. Make sure it’s added to your $PATH.

cargo install will download, compile and install probe-rs, cargo-flash and cargo-embed for you.

You have multiple options, the two most interesting are:

To install the latest release, run cargo install probe-rs-tools --locked
To try the latest development version (a.k.a the master branch) with experimental and unreleased changes, run cargo install probe-rs-tools --git https://github.com/probe-rs/probe-rs --locked

See the Cargo book for details.

You likely want to install shell completion support along with the probe-rs binaries. Just run:

probe-rs complete install

If your shell is not supported out of the box, please follow the instructions given by this command.
