Installing Steampipe SQLite Extensions

Each Steampipe plugin is distributed as a distinct Steampipe SQLite Extension. They are available for download in the Releases for the corresponding plugin repo, however it is simplest to install them with the Steampipe SQLite install script:

The installer will prompt you for the plugin name, version, and destination directory. It will then determine the OS and system architecture, and it will download and install the appropriate package.

The installer will find the appropriate extension (packaged as a .so file) and download it to the current directory.

If you don't want to use the installer, you can download, extract, and install the file yourself. There are downloadable tar.gz packages for all platforms available in the Releases for the corresponding plugin's Github repo (e.g. https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-plugin-aws/releases).
