Zato installation from source code

Note: These are advanced installation instructions that should be used only if you've been advised to do so by Zato support.

Otherwise, use Docker Quickstart which will start a fully working environment for you in 5 minutes, and then you'll be able to focus on your actual integration and automation work.

Repeat: Use Docker Quickstart unless Zato support specifically advised that you use the instructions below.

Requirements

Mac, Ubuntu, RHEL or compatible, Debian
Python 3.12 or newer
Sudo or administrator powers

Installation steps

Under Mac, make sure you have Homebrew installed and that your shell is Bash rather than zsh
Check out the source code from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/zatosource/zato && cd zato/code && git checkout support/3.3

Run the installer using Python 3.12. If required, it will ask for the password to sudo:

./install.sh -p python3.12

Confirm the installation:

./bin/zato --version
# Output -> Zato <major>.<minor>+rev.<nnn>-py3.n.n-<system-version>

For instance:

That concludes the process - you can refer to the main documentation index now.
