Windows

Executable Installer (recommended)

Download latest ta-lib-0.7.1-windows-x86_64.msi
Run the Installer:
- Double-click the downloaded .msi file.
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
To update, just repeat the installation (older version is automatically uninstalled).

If you choose to uninstall, us the Add/Remove Apps in windows settings.

If you prefer a non-interactive installation, you can use msiexec from the command line.

Windows Binaries

Use the .zip packages when you prefer to get the libraries without installing (e.g. to embed the TA-Lib binaries in your own installer).

Platform	Download
Intel/AMD 64-bits	ta-lib-0.7.1-windows-x86_64.zip
Intel/AMD 32-bits	ta-lib-0.7.1-windows-x86_32.zip
ARM64	Not yet available.

Windows Build from Source

Install VSCode 2022 community and do:

C:\ta-lib> "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" x64
C:\ta-lib> mkdir build
C:\ta-lib> cd build
C:\ta-lib\build> cmake ..
C:\ta-lib\build> cmake --build .

You might need to adjust the vcvarsall.bat command depending on your VSCode installation and platform.

macOS

macOS Homebrew (recommended)

brew install ta-lib

See the homebrew formula for the latest supported release and platforms.

macOS Build from Source

Ensure you have the required dependencies: brew install automake && brew install libtool

Download latest ta-lib-0.7.1-src.tar.gz (or, alternatively, clone down https://github.com/ta-lib/ta-lib/ and checkout the main branch)
Extract the Tarball if you downloaded the source manually:
```
tar -xzf ta-lib-0.7.1-src.tar.gz
cd ta-lib-0.7.1
```

Build and Install:

chmod +x autogen.sh  # ensure the permissions are set to generate the configure file
./autogen.sh         # generate the configure file
./configure
make
sudo make install

Follow the same procedure for an update (the older version is overwritten, no need to uninstall).

If you choose to uninstall do:

sudo make uninstall

Linux

Linux Debian Packages

GitHub Actions

To install the TA-Lib C library in a CI pipeline, use the setup-ta-lib action. It runs on Linux, macOS and Windows runners.

- uses: TA-Lib/setup-ta-lib@v1

The latest release is installed by default. To pin a specific version:

- uses: TA-Lib/setup-ta-lib@v1
  with:
    version: "0.7.1"

This is handy as a step before installing a wrapper that depends on the C library, such as the Python ta-lib package.
