# View Source mix local.rebar (Mix v1.16.3)

Fetches a copy of `rebar3` from the given path or URL.

It defaults to safely download a Rebar copy from Hex's CDN. However, a URL can be given as an argument, usually for an existing local copy of Rebar:

    $ mix local.rebar rebar3 path/to/rebar

The local copy is stored in your `MIX_HOME` (defaults to `~/.mix`) according to the current Elixir. The installed version of Rebar will be used whenever required by `mix deps.compile`.

## Command line options

- `rebar3 PATH` - specifies a path for `rebar3`

- `--sha512` - checks the Rebar script matches the given SHA-512 checksum

- `--force` - forces installation without a shell prompt; primarily intended for automation in build systems like `make`

- `--if-missing` - performs installation only if not installed yet; intended to avoid repeatedly reinstalling in automation when a script may be run multiple times

## Mirrors

If you want to change the default mirror to use for fetching `rebar` please set the `HEX_BUILDS_URL` environment variable.
