From source
To build it from source, you will need to have Git, Rust (at least 1.30) and Cargo installed. You will also need additional dependencies to compile libsass:
- OSX, Linux and other Unix:
make
(gmake
on BSDs),g++
,libssl-dev
- NixOS: Create a
shell.nix
file in the root of the cloned project with the following contents:
with import <nixpkgs> {}; pkgs.mkShell { buildInputs = [ libsass openssl pkgconfig ]; }
- Then invoke
nix-shell
. This opens a shell with the above dependencies. You then runcargo build --release
to build the project.
- NixOS: Create a
- Windows (a bit trickier): updated
MSVC
and overall updated VS installation
From a terminal, you can now run the following command:
$ cargo build --release
The binary will be available in the target/release
folder. You can move it in your $PATH
to have the
zola
command available globally or in a directory if you want for example to have the binary in the
same repository as the site.
