mise use

Usage: mise use [FLAGS] [TOOL@VERSION]...

Aliases: u

Installs a tool and adds the version it to mise.toml.

Use the --global flag to use the global config file instead.

Arguments

[TOOL@VERSION]...

Tool(s) to add to config file

e.g.: node@20, cargo:ripgrep@latest npm:prettier@3 If no version is specified, it will default to @latest

Flags

-f --force

Force reinstall even if already installed

--fuzzy

Save fuzzy version to config file

e.g.: mise use --fuzzy node@20 will save 20 as the version this is the default behavior unless MISE_PIN=1 or MISE_ASDF_COMPAT=1

-g --global

Use the global config file (~/.config/mise/config.toml) instead of the local one

--pin

Save exact version to config file e.g.: mise use --pin node@20 will save 20.0.0 as the version Set MISE_PIN=1 or MISE_ASDF_COMPAT=1 to make this the default behavior

Examples:

# set the current version of node to 20.x in mise.toml of current directory
# will write the fuzzy version (e.g.: 20)
$ mise use node@20

# set the current version of node to 20.x in ~/.config/mise/config.toml
# will write the precise version (e.g.: 20.0.0)
$ mise use -g --pin node@20

# sets .mise.local.toml (which is intended not to be committed to a project)
$ mise use --env local node@20

# sets .mise.staging.toml (which is used if MISE_ENV=staging)
$ mise use --env staging node@20
