CLI for installing RevoData modules

Revo Modules

Revo Modules is a CLI for discovering and installing module bundles from a registry.

Setup

Install the CLI with uv (recommended) or pip.

uv tool install revo-module-installer

pip install revo-module-installer

Usage

revo --help

Search and install a module interactively (the default command lists module names and descriptions, then installs the selected entry).

revo

List modules from the default registry repository.

revo modules list --show-description

Install a specific module ID into your current workspace.

revo modules install example-module

Preview the actions without writing files.

revo modules install example-module --dry-run

Registry sources

The default registry URL is https://github.com/revodatanl/revo-module-registry. You can override it with the REVO_MODULES_REGISTRY_URL environment variable or a user config file.

Create a config file at ~/.config/revo-modules/config.toml (Linux/macOS) or %APPDATA%\\revo-modules\\config.toml (Windows) with:

[registry]
url = "https://github.com/revodatanl/revo-module-registry"

Registry URLs can point to:

• GitHub repositories, which are resolved to raw registry files.
• Direct HTTP(S) URLs to registry YAML files.
• Local files via file:// URLs or file paths.
• Bundled package examples via package://example_registry.yml.

Manifest URLs support the same URL forms. GitHub blob URLs are automatically converted to raw content URLs.

Local registry fallback for tests

For testing purposes, set the environment variable below to use the bundled example registry:

export REVO_MODULES_ENV=test

When REVO_MODULES_ENV is set to test, the CLI uses the bundled registry regardless of whether the remote registry is reachable.

The bundled registry entry points to package://example_manifest.yml, so the example manifest stays self-contained for offline testing.

Platform support

All code changes must continue to work on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Ensure tests and tooling remain green across all three platforms.
