## About

XPipe is a connection hub that allows you to access your entire server infrastructure from your local desktop. It works on top of your installed command-line programs like SSH, docker, or others, and does not require any setup on your remote systems. It integrates with your favourite text editors, terminals, shells, VNC/RDP clients, password managers, and command-line tools. The platform is designed to be extensible, allowing anyone to add easily support for more tools or to implement custom functionality through a modular extension system.

It currently supports:

- [SSH](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/ssh) connections, config files, and tunnels
- [Docker](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/docker) + compose, [Podman](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/podman), [LXD](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/lxc), and [incus](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/lxc) containers
- [Proxmox PVE](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/proxmox), [Hyper-V](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/hyperv), [KVM](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/kvm), and [VMware Player/Workstation/Fusion](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/vmware) virtual machines
- [Tailscale](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/tailscale), [Netbird](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/netbird), and [Teleport](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/teleport) connections
- [AWS](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/aws) and [Hetzner Cloud](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/hcloud) servers
- [RDP](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/rdp) and [VNC](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/vnc) connections
- Windows Subsystem for Linux, Cygwin, and MSYS2 environments
- [Kubernetes](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/kubernetes) clusters, pods, and containers
- [Powershell Remote Sessions](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/pssession)

# Downloads

Note that this is a desktop application that should be run on your local desktop workstation, not on any server or containers. It will be able to connect to your server infrastructure from there.

For a full reference and instructions, see the [installation docs](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/installation) and [managed installation docs](https://docs.xpipe.io/guide/managed-installation).

## Windows

Installers are the easiest way to get started and come with an optional automatic update functionality:

- [Windows .msi Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-windows-x86_64.msi)
- [Windows .msi Installer (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-windows-arm64.msi)

If you don't like installers, you can also use a portable version that is packaged as an archive:

- [Windows .zip Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-windows-x86_64.zip)
- [Windows .zip Portable (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-windows-arm64.zip)

Alternatively, you can also use the following package managers:
- [choco](https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/xpipe) to install it with `choco install xpipe`.
- [winget](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli) to install it with `winget install xpipe-io.xpipe --source winget`.
- [scoop](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli) to install it with `scoop install extras/xpipe`.

## macOS

Installers are the easiest way to get started and come with an optional automatic update functionality:

- [MacOS .pkg Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-macos-x86_64.pkg)
- [MacOS .pkg Installer (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-macos-arm64.pkg)

If you don't like installers, you can also use a portable version that is packaged as an archive:

- [MacOS .dmg Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-macos-x86_64.dmg)
- [MacOS .dmg Portable (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-macos-arm64.dmg)

Alternatively, you can also use [Homebrew](https://github.com/xpipe-io/homebrew-tap) to install XPipe with `brew install --cask xpipe-io/tap/xpipe`.

## Linux

You can install XPipe the fastest by pasting the installation command into your terminal. This will perform the setup automatically.
The script supports installation via `apt`, `dnf`, `yum`, `zypper`, `rpm`, and `pacman` on Linux:

```
bash <(curl -sL https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/raw/master/get-xpipe.sh)
```

Of course, there are also other installation methods available.

### Debian-based distros

The following debian installers are available:

- [Linux .deb Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-x86_64.deb)
- [Linux .deb Installer (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-arm64.deb)

Note that you should use apt to install the package with `sudo apt install <file>` as other package managers, for example dpkg,
are not able to resolve and install any dependency packages.

### RHEL-based distros

The rpm releases are signed with the GPG key https://xpipe.io/signatures/crschnick.asc.
You can import it via `rpm --import https://xpipe.io/signatures/crschnick.asc` to allow your rpm-based package manager to verify the release signature. 

The following rpm installers are available:

- [Linux .rpm Installer (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-x86_64.rpm)
- [Linux .rpm Installer (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-installer-linux-arm64.rpm)

### Arch

There is an official [AUR package](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xpipe) available that you can either install manually or via an AUR helper such as with `yay -S xpipe`.

### AppImages

Alternatively, there are also AppImages available. These can be useful if you are using an immutable distro.

- [Linux .AppImage Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-x86_64.AppImage)
- [Linux .AppImage Portable (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-arm64.AppImage)

### NixOS

There's an official [xpipe nixpkg](https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=unstable&show=xpipe&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=xpipe) available that you can install with `nix-env -iA nixos.xpipe` on x86_64 Linux systems. This package is however usually not up to date.

There is also a custom repository that contains the latest up-to-date release flakes for Linux and macOS systems: https://github.com/xpipe-io/nixpkg.

### Tarball

In case you prefer to use an archive version that you can extract anywhere, you can use these:

- [Linux .tar.gz Portable (x86-64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-x86_64.tar.gz)
- [Linux .tar.gz Portable (ARM 64)](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe/releases/latest/download/xpipe-portable-linux-arm64.tar.gz)

### Docker container

XPipe is a desktop application first and foremost. It requires a full desktop environment to function with various installed applications such as terminals, editors, shells, CLI tools, and more. So there is no true web-based interface for XPipe.

Since it might make sense however to access your XPipe environment from the web, there is also a so-called webtop docker container image for XPipe. [XPipe Webtop](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe-webtop) is a web-based desktop environment that can be run in a container and accessed from a browser via KasmVNC. The desktop environment comes with XPipe and various terminals and editors preinstalled and configured. This image is also available for Kasm Workspaces in the [XPipe Kasm Registry](https://github.com/xpipe-io/kasm-registry).

## Open source model

XPipe follows an open core model, which essentially means that the main application is open source while certain other components are not. This mainly concerns the features only available in the homelab/professional plan and the shell handling library implementation. Furthermore, some CI pipelines and tests that run on private servers are also not included in the open repository.

The distributed XPipe application consists out of two parts:
- The open-source core that you can find this repository. It is licensed under the [Apache License 2.0](/LICENSE.md).
- The closed-source extensions, mostly for homelab/professional plan features, which are not included in this repository

Additional features are available in the homelab/professional plan. For more details see https://xpipe.io/pricing.
If your enterprise puts great emphasis on having access to the full source code, there are also full source-available enterprise options available.
