Installation

Runway can be installed like any other Python package, but we instead strongly recommend using it per-project with poetry. See Why Version Lock Per-Project for more info regarding this suggestion.

poetry (recommended)

$ poetry add runway

pip

$ pip install --user runway
# or (depending on how Python was installed)
$ pip install runway

Usage

poetry

$ poetry run runway --help

pip

$ runway --help

Removed in version 2.8.0: Support for installation via cURL and npm was removed. Prior versions published to npm will remain, in a deprecated/unsupported state, indefinably. Prior versions published to S3 will be removed at a date yet to be determined.

Why Version Lock Per-Project

Locking the version of Runway per-project will allow you to:

• Specify the version(s) of Runway compatible with your deployments config

• Ensure Runway executions are performed with the same version (regardless of where/when they occur – avoids the dreaded “works on my machine”)
