Installation

Installation

Installing Clockwork is quick and easy, and should take less than a few seconds. The install script is the fastest way to set it up, it handles downloading the binary for your platform and adding it to the path.

Windows

Run this command in Powershell (as Administrator):

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Turtlepaw/clockwork/refs/heads/main/install/install.ps1 -UseBasicParsing | Invoke-Expression
⚠️

You must run the script as Administrator or it will fail.

Custom Installation Path

You can set a custom installation, replacing C:\Your\Desired\Path with your desired path:

$scriptContent = (Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Turtlepaw/clockwork/refs/heads/main/install/install.ps1" -UseBasicParsing).Content
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock ([ScriptBlock]::Create($scriptContent)) -ArgumentList @("C:\Your\Desired\Path")
⚠️

It’s highly recommended to use the default path as there may be issues with the script if you use a custom path.

Linux/MacOS

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Turtlepaw/clockwork/refs/heads/main/install/install.sh | sudo bash

This script will download the latest release of Clockwork and add it to your path.

Manual installation of files in wff-build-tools is no longer required

Default Download Locations

Operating SystemPath
Microsoft Windows%USERPROFILE%\Clockwork
Linux/usr/local/bin
⚠️

Mac OS is currently not officially supported, but you may be able to use the Linux script.
