Install

Install standalone single-binary

wget https://github.com/pepa65/eqr/releases/download/1.4.3/qr
sudo mv qr /usr/local/bin
sudo chown root:root /usr/local/bin/qr
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/qr

Install with cargo

If not installed yet, install a Rust toolchain, see https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

Direct from crates.io

cargo install eqr

Direct from repo

cargo install --git https://github.com/pepa65/eqr

Static build (avoiding GLIBC incompatibilities)

git clone https://github.com/pepa65/eqr
cd eqr
rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl
cargo rel  # Alias in .cargo/config.toml

The binary will be at target/x86_64-unknown-linux-musl/release/qr

Install with cargo-binstall

Even without a full Rust toolchain, rust binaries can be installed with the static binary cargo-binstall:

# Install cargo-binstall for Linux x86_64
# (Other versions are available at https://crates.io/crates/cargo-binstall)
wget github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall/releases/latest/download/cargo-binstall-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tgz
tar xf cargo-binstall-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tgz
sudo chown root:root cargo-binstall
sudo mv cargo-binstall /usr/local/bin/

Only a linux-x86_64 (musl) binary available: cargo-binstall eqr

It will be installed in ~/.cargo/bin/ which still needs to be added to PATH!
