Installation

cargo install bee-check

Requires a recent Rust toolchain (1.76+). The binary lands in ~/.cargo/bin/bee-check.

Prebuilt binaries

Releases include prebuilt binaries for:

  • Linux x86_64, aarch64
  • macOS x86_64, aarch64
  • Windows x86_64

Grab them from github.com/ethswarm-tools/bee-check/releases, or use the installer scripts shown on each release page.

From source

git clone https://github.com/ethswarm-tools/bee-check
cd bee-check
cargo build --release
./target/release/bee-check --help

Verifying the install

bee-check --version
bee-check --help

Default Bee URL

If you don’t pass --bee, bee-check uses $BEE_API_URL (if set) or falls back to http://localhost:1633. Setting BEE_API_URL once in your shell rc file is the easiest way to skip typing --bee http://... every time.
