Download

The current version is v0.1.2. Every file below, with its SHA-256, is listed in checksums.txt; older versions live on the releases page.

macOS

One download for both Apple Silicon and Intel:

Open it and drag stompchain to Applications. The DMG also carries the stompchain command-line tool; copy it somewhere on your PATH if you want it.

If macOS refuses to open the app, it is because this build is not yet notarized with Apple. Right-click the app, choose Open, and confirm; macOS remembers the choice. This one-time step disappears once notarized builds ship.

Homebrew users can instead run:

brew install --cask crmne/stompchain/stompchain-app   # the app
brew install crmne/stompchain/stompchain              # the CLI

Windows

Almost every PC wants the first one; the second is for Windows on ARM (Surface and other Snapdragon machines):

Unpack and run stompchain-gui.exe. SmartScreen may warn about an unknown publisher on first run; choose More info, then Run anyway.

Linux

On Arch and its derivatives, install from the AUR, which also sets up the udev rule and desktop entry:

paru -S stompchain        # or: stompchain-git for the development build

On any other distro, grab the archive for your machine:

Unpack it, put the two binaries on your PATH, and install the packaged udev rule so you can open the device without root:

sudo install -m644 packaging/udev/70-line6-hx.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger

Then replug the pedal once.

Build from source

Any platform, with Rust installed:

git clone https://github.com/crmne/stompchain
cd stompchain
./install.sh

Packagers should read PACKAGING.md, which covers offline builds from the vendored-dependencies archive.

After installing

Whichever route you took, finish with Getting Started: one extraction step gives you model names and artwork, and there are a few things worth knowing before your first edit.
