Use our Liquibase OSS installer.

If the Liquibase Installer does not start automatically after downloading, locate the Installer file in your Downloads directory and run it.

Note: If you downloaded a .zip or .tar.gz archive instead of using the Installer, extract it to a local directory.

To run Liquibase commands from any terminal window, you must add the Liquibase to your system PATH. For detailed instructions, macOS, Linux, and Unix users can use this guide to adding a directory to your PATH.

When following the guide, be sure to add the export line to your shell config file.

~/.zshrc if you're using Zsh (default on macOS 10.15+)

~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile if you're using Bash (common on Linux and other Unix systems)

Be sure to replace /usr/local with the path to your Liquibase installation.

Example line to add:

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/liquibase"

After saving the file, apply your changes by restarting your terminal or running:

source ~/.zshrc # or ~/.bashrc

Once added, open a new Command Prompt and run:

If it returns the version number, Liquibase is installed and ready to use.
