Installation
============
.. _install-ubuntu:
Please follow the steps for your operating system.
Installation On Ubuntu
----------------------
Ubuntu comes with Python but we need to install pip, python-dev and several libraries.
This was tested on a fully patched installation of Ubuntu 16.04.
.. code:: bash
sudo apt-get install python3-pip python3-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev libtiff5-dev libjpeg8-dev zlib1g-dev libwebp-dev
sudo pip3 install mitmproxy # or pip install --user mitmproxy
On older Ubuntu versions, e.g., **12.04** and **14.04**, you may need to install a newer version of Python.
mitmproxy requires Python 3.5 or higher. Please take a look at pyenv_.
Make sure to have an up-to-date version of pip by running ``pip3 install -U pip``.
Once installation is complete you can run :ref:`mitmproxy` or :ref:`mitmdump` from a terminal.
.. _install-fedora:
Installation On Fedora
----------------------
Fedora comes with Python but we need to install pip, python-dev and several libraries.
This was tested on a fully patched installation of Fedora 24.
.. code:: bash
sudo dnf install make gcc redhat-rpm-config python3-pip python3-devel libffi-devel openssl-devel libtiff-devel libjpeg-devel zlib-devel libwebp-devel openjpeg2-devel
sudo pip3 install mitmproxy # or pip install --user mitmproxy
Make sure to have an up-to-date version of pip by running ``pip3 install -U pip``.
Once installation is complete you can run :ref:`mitmproxy` or :ref:`mitmdump` from a terminal.
.. _install-arch:
Installation On Arch Linux
--------------------------
mitmproxy has been added into the [community] repository. Use pacman to install it:
>>> sudo pacman -S mitmproxy
Once installation is complete you can run :ref:`mitmproxy` or :ref:`mitmdump` from a terminal.
Once installation is complete, you can run :ref:`mitmproxy`, :ref:`mitmdump` or :ref:`mitmweb` from a terminal.
.. _install-macos:
Installation On macOS
------------------------
Installation on macOS
---------------------
You can use Homebrew to install everything:
.. code:: bash
brew install mitmproxy
Or you can download the pre-built binary packages from `mitmproxy.org`_.
Once installation is complete you can run :ref:`mitmproxy` or :ref:`mitmdump` from a terminal.
.. _install-windows:
Installation On Windows
Installation on Windows
-----------------------
The recommended way to install mitmproxy on Windows is to use the installer provided at `mitmproxy.org`_. After installation, you'll find shortcuts for :ref:`mitmweb` (the web-based interface) and :ref:`mitmdump` in the start menu. Both executables are added to your PATH and can be invoked from the command line.
.. note::
Please note that mitmdump is the only component of mitmproxy that is supported on Windows at
the moment.
mitmproxy's console interface is not supported on Windows, but you can use mitmweb (the web-based interface) and mitmdump.
**There is no interactive user interface on Windows.**
.. _install-linux:
Installation on Linux
---------------------
The recommended way to run mitmproxy on Linux is to use the pre-built binaries provided at `mitmproxy.org`_.
Our pre-built binaries provide you with the latest version of mitmproxy, a self-contained Python 3.5 environment and a recent version of OpenSSL that supports HTTP/2. Of course, you can also install mitmproxy from source if you prefer that (see :ref:`install-advanced`).
.. _install-advanced:
Advanced Installation
---------------------
.. _install-docker:
Docker Images
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You can also use the official mitmproxy images from `DockerHub`_.
That being said, our portable binaries are just as easy to install and even easier to use. 😊
First, install the latest version of Python 3.5 from the `Python website`_.
If you already have an older version of Python 3.5 installed, make sure to install pip_
(pip is included in Python by default). If pip aborts with an error, make sure you are using the current version of pip.
.. code:: powershell
.. _install-arch:
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
Installation on Arch Linux
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Next, add Python and the Python Scripts directory to your **PATH** variable.
You can do this easily by running the following in powershell:
mitmproxy has been added into the [community] repository. Use pacman to install it:
.. code:: powershell
>>> sudo pacman -S mitmproxy
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", "$env:Path;C:\Python27;C:\Python27\Scripts", "User")
.. _install-source-ubuntu:
Installation from Source on Ubuntu
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

First, install the latest version of Python 3.5 or later from the `Python website`_. During installation, make sure to select `Add Python to PATH`.
Now, you can install mitmproxy by running
.. code:: powershell
pip install mitmproxy
pip3 install mitmproxy
Once the installation is complete, you can run :ref:`mitmdump` from a command prompt.

Installation From Source
------------------------
Latest Development Version
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you would like to install mitmproxy directly from the master branch on GitHub or would like to
get set up to contribute to the project, install the dependencies as you would for a regular
mitmproxy installation. Then see the Hacking_ section of the README on GitHub.
