Litestream

Build from Source

Installation

Most users should follow the steps above to install prebuilt binaries but you can also install from source if a binary is not provided for your operating system or architecture. First, install the Go toolchain.

Next, download the source code and run the following command:

go install ./cmd/litestream

This will install litestream into your $GOPATH/bin directory.

Building litestream-vfs (Optional)

The VFS extension provides read-only access to replicated databases directly from object storage. It requires CGO and is built separately from the main binary.

Prerequisites

  • CGO toolchain (gcc/clang)
  • Go 1.24+

Build command 

make vfs   # builds dist/litestream-vfs.so (preferred)

# Manual Linux build:
CGO_ENABLED=1 go build -tags "vfs,SQLITE3VFS_LOADABLE_EXT" -buildmode=c-archive -o dist/litestream-vfs.a ./cmd/litestream-vfs
cp dist/litestream-vfs.h src/litestream-vfs.h
gcc -DSQLITE3VFS_LOADABLE_EXT -fPIC -shared -o dist/litestream-vfs.so src/litestream-vfs.c dist/litestream-vfs.a -lpthread -ldl -lm

Use .dylib (macOS) or .dll (Windows) if your platform expects it. See the VFS guide for usage and language-specific examples.
