Python library
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Archinstall ships on `PyPi <https://pypi.org/>`_ as `archinstall <pypi.org/project/archinstall/>`_.
|
|
But the library can be installed manually as well.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
This is not required if you're running archinstall on a pre-built ISO. The installation is only required if you're creating your own scripted installations.
|
|
|
|
Using pacman
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Archinstall is on the `official repositories <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Official_repositories>`_.
|
|
|
|
To install both the library and the archinstall script:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
sudo pacman -S archinstall
|
|
|
|
Or, to install just the library:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
sudo pacman -S python-archinstall
|
|
|
|
Using PyPi
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
The basic concept of PyPi applies using `pip`.
|
|
Either as a global library:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
sudo pip install archinstall
|
|
|
|
Or as a user module:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
pip --user install archinstall
|
|
|
|
Which will allow you to start using the library.

Manual installation
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
You can either download the github repo as a zip archive, or you can clone it.
|
|
We'll clone it here but both methods work the same.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall
|
|
|
|
You can either move the folder into your project and simply do
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import archinstall
|
|
|
|
Or you can use `setuptools <https://pypi.org/project/setuptools/>`_ to install it into the module path.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
sudo python setup.py install |
