title: InvokeAI Installer
|
||
|
|
---
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The InvokeAI installer is a shell script that will install InvokeAI
|
||
|
|
onto a stock computer running recent versions of Linux, MacOSX or
|
||
|
|
Windows. It will leave you with a version that runs a stable version
|
||
|
|
of InvokeAI. When a new version of InvokeAI is released, you will
|
||
|
|
download and reinstall the new version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you wish to tinker with unreleased versions of InvokeAI that
|
||
|
|
introduce potentially unstable new features, you should consider using
|
||
|
|
the [source installer](INSTALL_SOURCE.md) or one of the [manual
|
||
|
|
install](INSTALL_MANUAL.md) methods.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before you begin, make sure that you meet the [hardware
|
||
|
|
requirements](index.md#Hardware_Requirements) and has the appropriate
|
||
|
|
GPU drivers installed. In particular, if you are a Linux user with an
|
||
|
|
AMD GPU installed, you may need to install the [ROCm
|
||
|
|
driver](https://rocmdocs.amd.com/en/latest/Installation_Guide/Installation-Guide.html).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Installation requires roughly 18G of free disk space to load the
|
||
|
|
libraries and recommended model weights files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Steps to Install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Download the [latest release](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/releases/latest)
|
||
|
|
of InvokeAI's installer for your platform
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Place the downloaded package someplace where you have plenty of HDD space,
|
||
|
|
and have full permissions (i.e. `~/` on Lin/Mac; your home folder on Windows)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Extract the 'InvokeAI' folder from the downloaded package
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. Open the extracted 'InvokeAI' folder
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5. Double-click 'install.bat' (Windows), or 'install.sh' (Lin/Mac) (or run from a terminal)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6. Follow the prompts
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
7. After installation, please run the 'invoke.bat' file (on Windows) or
|
||
|
|
'invoke.sh' file (on Linux/Mac) to start InvokeAI.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you run into problems during or after installation, the InvokeAI
|
||
|
|
team is available to help you. Either create an
|
||
|
|
[Issue](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/issues) at our GitHub
|
||
|
|
site, or make a request for help on the "bugs-and-support" channel of
|
||
|
|
our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/ZmtBAhwWhy). We are a 100%
|
||
|
|
volunteer organization, but typically somebody will be available to
|
||
|
|
help you within 24 hours, and often much sooner.
