Installing the Render Engine CLI

To use the render engine, you must have Python 3.10 or greater installed. You can download Python from python.org.

• Linux/MacOS: python.org
• Windows: Microsoft Store

The Render Engine CLI is available in PyPI and can be installed via pip or uv:

pip install render-engine-cli     # via pip
uv pip install render-engine-cli  # via uv

Since render engine itself is one of the dependencies of the CLI there is no need to isntall them separately. With that, the version of render engine in the CLI dependencies is not pinned to a specific version so if you want to pin it you can do so either in your requirements.txt (pip) or pyproject.toml (uv) files.

# requirements.text
render-engine-cli
render-engine==<version to pin>


# pyproject.toml
[project]
dependencies = [
  "render-engine-cli",
  "render-engine==<version to pin>"
]
