title: How to use HiddifyCli on OpenWrt
---
<markdown ="1">
### **Complete Guide to Installing and Setting Up HiddifyCli on OpenWrt**
To install **HiddifyCli** on OpenWrt, follow all the steps below in order. This guide includes downloading, extracting, installing, and full configuration.
---
#### 1. **Download HiddifyCli File**
To download the version suitable for your routers architecture, use the following command for direct download:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
wget -O /tmp/HiddifyCli.tar.gz https://github.com/hiddify/hiddify-core/releases/download/latest/hiddify-cli-linux-{ARCH}.tar.gz
```
</div>
**Explanation:**
- Replace `{ARCH}` with your routers architecture (e.g., `mips`, `arm`, or `x86_64`).
---
#### 2. **Extract the File**
After downloading, extract the file using the following command:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
tar -xvzf /tmp/HiddifyCli.tar.gz -C /tmp
```
</div>
**Command Explanation:**
- `x-` extracts the file.
- `v-` displays extraction details.
- `z-` opens gzip-compressed files.
- `f-` specifies the file name.
- `/tmp/` is the extraction path (you can replace it with your preferred directory).
---
#### 3. **Move the Executable to the Appropriate Directory**
Move the `HiddifyCli` executable file to `/usr/bin/` using:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
mv /tmp/HiddifyCli /usr/bin/
```
</div>
---
#### 4. **Set Execution Permissions**
To enable execution for the file, enter the following command:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
chmod +x /usr/bin/HiddifyCli
```
</div>
---
#### 5. **Create an Init Script**
To create an automatic service:
1. Create a file named `HiddifyCli` in `/etc/init.d/`:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
touch /etc/init.d/HiddifyCli
```
</div>
2. Fill the file with the following content:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
#!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common
START=91
USE_PROCD=1
start_service() {
procd_open_instance
procd_set_param command /usr/bin/HiddifyCli run -c /root/config.conf
procd_set_param stdout 1
procd_set_param stderr 1
procd_set_param respawn
procd_close_instance
}
```
</div>
3. Set the file permissions:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/HiddifyCli
```
</div>
---
#### 6. **Enable and Start the Service**
Run the following commands to enable and start the service:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
service HiddifyCli enable
service HiddifyCli start
```
</div>
---
#### 7. **Configure the Settings**
1. **Extract the Configuration from Hiddify Desktop App:**
- Set up your desired configurations in the app.
- Export the config and save it as a text file.
- Rename the file extension to `.conf` (e.g., `config.conf`).
2. **Move the Config File to `/root/` on the Router:**
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
mv config.conf /root/
```
</div>
---
#### 8. **Reboot the Router**
Restart the router to apply the changes:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
reboot
```
</div>
After rebooting, the HiddifyCli service will be active, and the **Socks5 Proxy** will be available at:
<div dir="ltr">
```plaintext
127.0.0.1:12334
```
</div>
---
### Additional Notes:
- To check the routers architecture, run the following command:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
uname -m
```
</div>
- If any issues arise during the process, check the service logs using:
<div dir="ltr">
```bash
logread | grep HiddifyCli
```
</div>
