Install Using Package Managers
|
||
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Unless developing or testing new features for HackRF, we highly recommend that most users use build systems or package managers provided for their operating system. **Our suggested operating system for use with HackRF is Ubuntu**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FreeBSD
|
||
|
|
+++++++
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can use the binary package: ``# pkg install hackrf``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can also build and install from ports:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block :: sh
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# cd /usr/ports/comms/hackrf
|
||
|
|
# make install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Linux: Arch
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block :: sh
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
pacman -S hackrf
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Linux: Fedora / Red Hat
|
||

emerge -a net-wireless/hackrf-tools
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Linux: Ubuntu / Debian
|
||
|
|
++++++++++++++++++++++
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
``sudo apt-get install hackrf``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OS X (10.5+): Homebrew
|

|
||
|
|
|

Linux / OS X / \*BSD: Building HackRF Software From Source
|
||
|
|
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Acquire the source for the HackRF tools from either a `release archive <https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf/releases>`__ or git: ``git clone https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf.git``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once you have the source downloaded, the host tools can be built as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block :: sh
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd hackrf/host
|
||
|
|
mkdir build
|
||
|
|
cd build
|
||
|
|
cmake ..
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
sudo make install
|
||
|
|
sudo ldconfig
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you have HackRF hardware, you may need to :ref:`update the firmware <updating_firmware>` to match the host tools versions.

Windows: Prerequisites for Cygwin, MinGW, or Visual Studio
|
||
|
|
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* cmake-2.8.12.1 or later from http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
|
||
|
|
* libusbx-1.0.18 or later from http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusbx/files/latest/download?source=files
|
||
|
|
* fftw-3.3.5 or later from http://www.fftw.org/install/windows.html
|
||
|
|
* Install Windows driver for HackRF hardware or use Zadig see http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig
|
||
|
|
* If you want to use Zadig select HackRF USB device and just install/replace it with WinUSB driver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note for Windows build: You shall always execute hackrf-tools from Windows command shell and not from Cygwin or MinGW shell because on Cygwin/MinGW Ctrl+C is not managed correctly and especially for hackrf_transfer the Ctrl+C (abort) will not stop correctly and will corrupt the file.
