{% embed url="<https://github.com/lensesio/stream-reactor/releases>" %}
Stream Reactor Release download
{% endembed %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you do not use the **`plugin.path`** and add the connectors directly to the CLASSPATH you may have dependency conflicts.
{% endhint %}

Download the release and unpack.

Within the unpacked directory you will find the following structure:

```bash
/opt/stream-reactor-x.x.x-x.x.x
├── bin
├── conf
├── libs
├── LICENSE
```

The libs directory contains all the Stream Reactor Connector jars. Edit your Connect worker properties add the path to the directory containing the connectors and restart your workers. Repeat this process for all the Connect workers in your cluster. The connectors must be available to all the workers.

Example:

```bash
plugin.path=/usr/share/connectors,/opt/stream-reactor-x.x.x-x.x.x/libs
```
