rebootpy requires Python 3.7.0 or higher to function properly.

​
Installing with pip

The easiest way to install rebootpy is using pip, Python’s package manager.
1

Open your terminal or command prompt

Depending on your operating system, open the appropriate command-line interface.
2

Install rebootpy

Run the appropriate command for your system:
py -3 -m pip install -U rebootpy
The -U flag ensures you get the latest version of rebootpy.

Verify installation

After installation, you can verify that rebootpy was installed correctly by checking the version:
python -c "import rebootpy; print(rebootpy.__version__)"
This should display the installed version number (e.g., 1.0.0).

​
Dependencies

rebootpy automatically installs the following dependencies:
  • aiohttp (>=3.12.7) - Asynchronous HTTP client/server framework
  • aioconsole (>=0.1.15) - Asynchronous console and interfaces
  • cryptography - Cryptographic recipes and primitives
These dependencies are installed automatically when you install rebootpy, so you don’t need to install them separately.

​
Installing from Source

If you want to install the latest development version directly from the GitHub repository: 
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/xMistt/rebootpy.git
cd rebootpy

# Install in development mode
pip install -e .
Installing from source may include unreleased features and breaking changes. Use the stable pip release for production applications.

​
Updating rebootpy

To update rebootpy to the latest version: 
py -3 -m pip install -U rebootpy

​
Troubleshooting

​
Permission Errors

If you encounter permission errors during installation, try: 
# Add --user flag to install for your user only
python3 -m pip install -U rebootpy --user

​
Python Version Issues

If you have multiple Python versions installed, make sure you’re using Python 3.7 or higher: 
# Check your Python version
python --version

# Or
python3 --version
It’s recommended to use a virtual environment to avoid conflicts with other packages: 
# Create a virtual environment
python3 -m venv rebootpy-env

# Activate it (Linux/macOS)
source rebootpy-env/bin/activate

# Activate it (Windows)
rebootpy-env\Scripts\activate

# Install rebootpy in the virtual environment
pip install rebootpy
