Installation#

Install using pip#

The recommended method is to use a virtual environment.

$ pip install xsdata[cli,lxml,soap]

Hint

  • Install the cli requirements for the code generator

  • Install the soap requirements for the builtin wsdl client

  • Install lxml if you want to use one of the lxml handlers/writers instead of the builtin python xml implementations.

xsdata has a monthly release cycle, in order to use the latest updates you can also install directly from the git repo.

$ pip install git+https://github.com/tefra/xsdata@master#egg=xsdata[cli,lxml]

Install using conda#

$ conda install -c conda-forge xsdata

Verify installation#

Verify installation using the cli entry point.
