Installation via System Package Manager

Warning

Currently, only the AUR version is provided. If you are a Windows/macOS user, it is recommended to install via uv. If you are a Linux user, it is highly recommended to install via a package manager.

Preparation

What is AUR?

AUR (Arch User Repository) allows users to install software from community-maintained software repositories. AUR packages are typically maintained by community members rather than official maintainers. Common AUR helpers include yay and paru. The following tutorial uses paru as an example; yay works similarly, just replace paru with yay.

Installation Process

AUR

paru -S astrbot-git
# Note:
# The review step will begin; press 'q' to exit review and continue installation.
# After installation, the data directory is fixed at: ~/.local/share/astrbot

Starting

Tip

You can directly use astrbot init (for the first run) to initialize. Use astrbot run to run the bot. However, it is highly recommended to use systemctl for starting, as it provides features like automatic restart and log rotation.

systemctl --user start astrbot.service

Auto-start on Boot

# For security reasons, it is designed to run as a user.
systemctl --user enable astrbot.service
# If you need to start it immediately, add --now
# systemctl --user enable --now astrbot.service
