Installation

Binaries at various versions for linux, macOs and Windows are available on the release page.

Or...

Quickly curl the latest binary

# pick one
opsys=darwin
opsys=windows
opsys=linux

curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/releases/latest |\
  grep browser_download |\
  grep $opsys |\
  cut -d '"' -f 4 |\
  xargs curl -O -L
mv kustomize_kustomize\.v*_${opsys}_amd64 kustomize
chmod u+x kustomize

Build the kustomize CLI from local source

# Need go 1.13 or higher
unset GOPATH
# see https://golang.org/doc/go1.13#modules
unset GO111MODULES

# clone the repo
git clone git@github.com:kubernetes-sigs/kustomize.git
# get into the repo root
cd kustomize

# Optionally checkout a particular tag if you don't
# want to build at head
git checkout kustomize/v3.2.3

# build the binary
(cd kustomize; go install .)

# run it
~/go/bin/kustomize version

Other methods

Use go get

This works poorly with existing Go package installations at the moment, since kustomize switched over to Go modules but hasn't historically followed semver with respect to its API.

This is being fixed, after which go get should work correctly.

macOS

brew install kustomize

windows

choco install kustomize
