TypeDB Console

Install a lightweight and powerful CLI tool to manage and query your TypeDB databases.

  • macOS

  • Linux

  • Windows

Install TypeDB Console using Homebrew:

brew tap typedb/tap
brew install typedb/tap/typedb

Or download and install manually:

  1. Ensure Java 11+ is installed. TypeDB supports OpenJDK and Oracle JDK.

  2. Download the right package for your system: TypeDB Console x86_64 / arm64

  3. Extract the archive and optionally create a symlink:

    sudo mkdir /opt/typedb
    unzip ~/Downloads/<ARCHIVE_FILENAME>.zip -d /opt/typedb
    ln -s /opt/typedb/<ARCHIVE_FILENAME>/typedb /usr/local/bin/typedb

Install TypeDB Console using APT:

  1. Add the TypeDB repository:

    sudo apt install software-properties-common apt-transport-https gpg
    gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-key 17507562824cfdcc
    gpg --export 17507562824cfdcc | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/typedb.gpg > /dev/null
    echo "deb https://repo.typedb.com/public/public-release/deb/ubuntu trusty main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/typedb.list > /dev/null
    sudo apt update
  2. Ensure Java 11+ is installed:

    sudo apt install default-jre

    TypeDB supports OpenJDK and Oracle JDK.

  3. Install typedb:

    sudo apt install typedb

    If you had an older version (≤2.25.5) of typedb installed, you might first need to uninstall older packages to avoid conflicts:

    sudo apt remove typedb-server typedb-bin typedb-console

Or download and install manually:

  1. Ensure Java 11+ is installed. TypeDB supports OpenJDK and Oracle JDK.

  2. Download the right package for your system: TypeDB Console x86_64 / arm64

  3. Extract the archive and optionally create a symlink:

    mkdir /opt/typedb
    tar -xzf ~/Downloads/<ARCHIVE_FILENAME>.tar.gz -C /opt/typedb
    ln -s /opt/typedb/<ARCHIVE_FILENAME>/typedb /usr/local/bin/typedb
  1. Ensure Java 11+ is installed. TypeDB supports OpenJDK and Oracle JDK.

  2. Download and unzip the archive: TypeDB Console (x86_64)

  3. (Optional) Add the extracted archive path to your PATH environment variable.
