# Frida
Dynamic instrumentation toolkit for developers, reverse-engineers, and security
researchers. Learn more at [frida.re](https://frida.re/).
Two ways to install
===================
## 1. Install from prebuilt binaries
This is the recommended way to get started. All you need to do is:
pip install frida-tools # CLI tools
pip install frida # Python bindings
npm install frida # Node.js bindings
You may also download pre-built binaries for various operating systems from
Frida's [releases](https://github.com/frida/frida/releases) page on GitHub.
## 2. Build your own binaries
Run:
make
You may also invoke `./configure` first if you want to specify a `--prefix`, or
any other options.
### CLI tools
For running the Frida CLI tools, e.g. `frida`, `frida-ls-devices`, `frida-ps`,
`frida-kill`, `frida-trace`, `frida-discover`, etc., you need a few packages:
pip install colorama prompt-toolkit pygments
### Apple OSes
First make a trusted code-signing certificate. If you have already used Xcode
before, chances are you already have an Apple development certificate.
You can check it with the following command:
security find-identity -v -p codesigning
Which will return the certificate in the following format:
1) XXXXX "Apple Development: user@mail.com (XXXXX)"
If you do not have a certificate, follow this guide:
https://help.apple.com/xcode/mac/current/#/dev154b28f09.
Next export the name of your certificate to relevant environment
variables, and run `make`:
export MACOS_CERTID="Apple Development: user@mail.com (XXXXXXXXXX)"
export IOS_CERTID="Apple Development: user@mail.com (XXXXXXXXXX)"
export WATCHOS_CERTID="Apple Development: user@mail.com (XXXXXXXXXX)"
export TVOS_CERTID="Apple Development: user@mail.com (XXXXXXXXXX)"
make
