Installation

The command line interface is the easiest way to build an AEA.

Installation

The following installs the AEA CLI package.

pip install aea[cli]

The following installs the entire AEA package including the CLI.

pip install aea[all]

If you are using zsh rather than bash type

pip install 'aea[cli]'
and
pip install 'aea[all]'
respectively.

Be sure that the bin folder of your Python environment is in the PATH variable. If so, you can execute the CLI tool as:

aea

You might find useful the execution of the aea.cli package as a script:

python -m aea.cli
which is just an alternative entry-point to the CLI tool.

Troubleshooting

To ensure no cache is used run.

pip install aea[all] --force --no-cache-dir

And for zsh run:

pip install 'aea[all]' --force --no-cache-dir
