Installation

Every release ships prebuilt binaries for macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), Linux (x86_64 and arm64, fully static musl builds) and Windows (x86_64), so nothing needs to be compiled. Pick whichever method suits your machine.

Homebrew (macOS, Linux)

brew tap tareqmy/tap
brew install sipr

The formula lives in the tareqmy/homebrew-tap repository and is updated by CI on every release. If Homebrew reports “No available formula”, run brew tap tareqmy/tap first.

Shell script (macOS, Linux)

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tareqmy/sipr/master/scripts/install.sh | sh

The script detects the platform, downloads the matching release archive, and installs sipr into /usr/local/bin when that is writable, otherwise into ~/.local/bin. Set VERSION=v0.27.1 in the environment to pin a release. Read the script before piping it to a shell; its checksum is in scripts/install.sh.sha256.

Uninstall the same way:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tareqmy/sipr/master/scripts/uninstall.sh | sh

PowerShell (Windows)

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tareqmy/sipr/master/scripts/install.ps1 | iex

Installs sipr.exe into %USERPROFILE%\.sipr\bin and adds that directory to the user PATH; no administrator rights are needed. scripts/uninstall.ps1 reverses it.

Chocolatey (Windows)

Not published yet. The package definition is in dist/chocolatey/ and the release workflow pushes it once a CHOCO_API_KEY secret is set; until then, use the PowerShell installer above.

Cargo

cargo install sipr

Builds from the crates.io sources with a stock Rust toolchain (1.85 or newer). No system libraries are needed: TLS is pure-Rust rustls, SRTP and AKA are in-tree, and pcap files are read without libpcap.

Nix (flake)

nix run github:tareqmy/sipr -- -sn uac -r 10 -m 100 127.0.0.1:5060
nix profile install github:tareqmy/sipr

In a flake-based NixOS or home-manager configuration:

inputs.sipr.url = "github:tareqmy/sipr";
# ...
environment.systemPackages = [ inputs.sipr.packages.${pkgs.system}.default ];

nix develop gives a shell with the Rust toolchain and cargo-deny.

Release archives

Every release on the releases page carries one archive per target, named sipr-vX.Y.Z-<target>.tar.gz (.zip on Windows), holding the single sipr binary. Download, extract, and put it on your PATH.

From source

git clone https://github.com/tareqmy/sipr && cd sipr
cargo build --release        # binary at target/release/sipr
cargo install --path .       # or install it onto your PATH

SCTP transport (-t s1|sn) is a Linux-only cargo feature and is not in the prebuilt binaries: cargo build --release --features sctp.

Verifying

sipr --version
sipr -sn uas -p 5060                          # answer calls
sipr -sn uac -r 10 -m 100 127.0.0.1:5060      # place 100 calls at 10 cps
