Manifest has unsupported version: 8 (we support 4)

Hi, I’ve created a database using v3.2103.2, then I tried to use the badger cli tool as described here Get started —, like this:

$ go install github.com/dgraph-io/badger/badger@latest
$ badger info --dir=/path/to/db

But I get this error: Error: failed to print information in MANIFEST file: manifest has unsupported version: 8 (we support 4).

Any help is very welcome :slight_smile:

The @latest tag refers to badger v1.6.2. The actual latest version is v3.2103.2. You’ll want to take a look at the install instructions in the Github repo.

Awesome, thanks @david.schlachter ! Do I need to checkout the source in order to install the cli tool, isn’t it go-installable with a single command?

the Install instructions in the github repo refer to go get github.com/dgraph-io/badger/v3 this does not work with go1.18 you need to go install but what is the path? v3 no longer exists.
