Package Manager

:material-tram: Repository Installation

=== ":material-debian: Debian / APT"

```bash
sudo curl -fsSL https://sing-box.app/gpg.key -o /etc/apt/keyrings/sagernet.asc
sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/sagernet.asc
echo "deb [arch=`dpkg --print-architecture` signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/sagernet.asc] https://deb.sagernet.org/ * *" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sagernet.list > /dev/null
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sing-box # or sing-box-beta
```

=== ":material-redhat: Redhat / DNF"

```bash
sudo dnf -y install dnf-plugins-core
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://sing-box.app/sing-box.repo
sudo dnf install sing-box # or sing-box-beta
```
(This applies to any distribution that uses `dnf` as the package manager: Fedora, CentOS, even OpenSUSE with DNF installed.)

:material-download-box: Manual Installation

=== ":material-debian: Debian / DEB"

```bash
bash <(curl -fsSL https://sing-box.app/deb-install.sh)
```

=== ":material-redhat: Redhat / RPM"

```bash
bash <(curl -fsSL https://sing-box.app/rpm-install.sh)
```
(This applies to any distribution that uses `rpm` and `systemd`.  Because of how `rpm` defines dependencies, if it installs, it probably works.)

=== ":simple-archlinux: Archlinux / PKG"

```bash
bash <(curl -fsSL https://sing-box.app/arch-install.sh)
```

:material-alert: Problematic Sources

Type	Platform	Link	Promblem(s)
DEB	AOSC	aosc-os-abbs	Problematic build tag list modification
Homebrew	/	homebrew-core	Problematic build tag list modification
Termux	Android	termux-packages	Problematic build tag list modification
FreshPorts	FreeBSD	FreeBSD ports	Old Go (go1.20)

If you are a user of them, please report issues to them:

1. Please do not modify release build tags without full understanding of the related functionality: enabling non-default labels may result in decreased performance; the lack of default labels may cause user confusion.
2. sing-box supports compiling with some older Go versions, but it is not recommended (especially versions that are no longer supported by Go).

:material-book-multiple: Service Management

For Linux systems with systemd, usually the installation already includes a sing-box service, you can manage the service using the following command:

Operation	Command
Enable	sudo systemctl enable sing-box
Disable	sudo systemctl disable sing-box
Start	sudo systemctl start sing-box
Stop	sudo systemctl stop sing-box
Kill	sudo systemctl kill sing-box
Restart	sudo systemctl restart sing-box
Logs	sudo journalctl -u sing-box --output cat -e
New Logs	sudo journalctl -u sing-box --output cat -f
