Installation

System Requirements

You’ll need Python 3.8 or higher on macOS, Windows, or Linux.

The following Tomcat versions are supported:

  • 8.5.x

  • 9.0.x

  • 10.0.x

  • 10.1.x

The operating system and Java Virtual Machine don’t matter as long as Tomcat runs on it.

You can double check the list of versions supported by:

$ tomcat-manager -v
7.0.0 (works with Tomcat >= 8.5 and <= 10.1)

or:

$ tomcat-manager
tomcat-manager> version
7.0.0 (works with Tomcat >= 8.5 and <= 10.1)

These tools should work with newer versions of Tomcat than the ones officially supported. The Tomcat Manager web application that is part of Tomcat has been remarkably stable over many versions, with only a few additions.

Install using pip

Install using pip:

$ pip install tomcatmanager

Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Now what?

First you will need to Configure Tomcat.

If you are in a hurry to get started with the command line tool, type:

$ tomcat-manager -h

Or, you can start writing your own python code which imports the package.
