Python library

Archinstall ships on PyPi as 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

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 13)

Title underline too short.

Using pacman
----------

Archinstall is on the official repositories.

To install both the library and the archinstall script:

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 19)

Cannot analyze code. Pygments package not found.

.. code-block:: console

    sudo pacman -S archinstall

Or, to install just the library:

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 25)

Cannot analyze code. Pygments package not found.

.. code-block:: console

    sudo pacman -S python-archinstall

Using PyPi

The basic concept of PyPi applies using pip. Either as a global library:

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 35)

Cannot analyze code. Pygments package not found.

.. code-block:: console

    sudo pip install archinstall

Or as a user module:

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 41)

Cannot analyze code. Pygments package not found.

.. 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.

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 55)

Cannot analyze code. Pygments package not found.

.. code-block:: console

    git clone https://github.com/Torxed/archinstall

Either you can move the folder into your project and simply do

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 61)

Cannot analyze code. Pygments package not found.

.. code-block:: python

    import archinstall

Or you can use setuptools to install it into the module path.

System Message: WARNING/2 (<stdin>, line 67)

Cannot analyze code. Pygments package not found.

.. code-block:: console

    sudo python setup.py install
