How to get AQUILIFY

Aquilify is available open-source under the BSD license. We recommend using the latest version of Python 3. The last version to support Python 2.7 is Aquilify 1.14 LTS. See the FAQ for the Python versions supported by each version of Aquilify. Here’s how to get it:

Option 1: Get the latest official version

The latest official version is 1.14 Read the 1.14 release notes, then install it with pip:

pip install aquilify==1.14

Option 2: Get the latest development version

The latest and greatest Aquilify version is the one that’s in our Git repository (our revision-control system). This is only for experienced users who want to try incoming changes and help identify bugs before an official release. Get it using this shell command, which requires Git:

git clone https://github.com/embrake/aquilify.git

You can also download a gzipped tarball of the development version. This archive is updated every time we commit code.
