Installation

By the end of this step, Yera will be installed on your machine.

Yera requires python 3.10 and above, and is available via PyPI. We recommend uv

Install from PyPI

uv add yera

If you prefer pip:

pip install yera

The standard install includes support for Anthropic, OpenAI, Azure, and AWS out of the box.

Optional Extras

To run models locally, install the relevant optional extra:

  • Llama-cpp: uv add yera[llama-cpp]
  • Ollama: uv add yera[ollama]

Verifying the Install

Confirm Yera is installed correctly by running:

yera --version

You should see the current version printed in your terminal. If you see an error instead, check that your Python environment is active.

Windows

On some Windows setups the yera entry point isn't added to your PATH automatically. If the command above isn't found, use python -m yera.cli instead — it behaves identically. Anywhere these tutorials use yera, you can substitute python -m yera.cli. Alternatively, you can add the Scripts directory to your PATH to use yera directly.

Next

Now you have Yera installed, the next step is to configure it.
