How to Install CLI Windows?

Step 1: Installing Python
Install a supported version of Python from the Python Windows downloads page. During installation, choose to add Python to the PATH and/or environment variables (depending on the prompt).

Step 2: Creating and Configuring a Virtual Environment
The venv Python module is a virtual environment builder that lets you create isolated Python environments. We recommend installing the CLI in a virtual environment.

Installing and Activating your Virtual Environment.

After Python is installed, set up a virtual environment for your operating system using the following steps.

  • 1
    Navigate to the directory in which you would like to create the virtual environment.
  • 2
    Create the virtual environment by running the following command:
    python -m venv oracle-cli
  • 3
    Activate the virtual environment by running the following command:
    oracle-cli/Scripts/activate

Step 3: Installing the Command Line Interface
You can download the CLI from GitHub or install the package from Python Package Index (PyPI).
To install using the GitHub download:

  • 1
    Download and unzipoci-cli.zip.
  • 2
    Run the following command.
    pip install oci_cli-*-py2.py3-none-any.whl
    To install using PyPI, run the following command:

    pip install oci-cli
