Install

The CLI (the reconciler) and the app SDK are installed independently. You typically need both: the CLI on your laptop or CI host, the SDK in the application that owns the schedules.

CLI (the reconciler)

macOS — Homebrew

brew install awbx/cronix/cronix

Or, if you’ll install more from this tap later:

brew tap awbx/cronix
brew install cronix

Linux / macOS — one-liner

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/awbx/cronix/main/install.sh | sh

Pin a version + custom install dir:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/awbx/cronix/main/install.sh \
  | CRONIX_VERSION=v0.7.2 INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin sh

Linux packages (Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/Fedora, Alpine)

Download from the latest GitHub release:

Distro	File	Install
Debian, Ubuntu	cronix_<ver>_linux_amd64.deb	sudo dpkg -i cronix_*.deb
RHEL, Fedora, openSUSE	cronix_<ver>_linux_amd64.rpm	sudo rpm -i cronix_*.rpm
Alpine	cronix_<ver>_linux_amd64.apk	sudo apk add --allow-untrusted cronix_*.apk

Go developers

go install github.com/awbx/cronix/go/cmd/cronix@latest

Note: built without goreleaser’s -ldflags, so cronix version reports dev rather than the tagged version.

Docker

docker pull awbx/cronix

The Docker image is what the Kubernetes backend installs into your cluster’s CronJob pods.

Verify

cronix version

App SDK

TypeScript

pnpm add @awbx/cronix-sdk

For frameworks that don’t speak Web Fetch natively, install the matching sibling adapter:

pnpm add @awbx/cronix-adapter-express
pnpm add @awbx/cronix-adapter-fastify
pnpm add @awbx/cronix-adapter-koa
pnpm add @awbx/cronix-adapter-nest

Hono, Bun, Workers, Vercel/Next.js, and Deno serve a Web Request natively — no adapter needed.

Go

The Go module ships HMAC verification only — your app handles the schedule registration itself:

go get github.com/awbx/cronix/go/pkg/cronsdk

Future SDKs (Python, Ruby, …) will get their own packages; the spec/ directory is the cross-language correctness contract.
