Welcome to the InvenioRDM project!

InvenioRDM is a ready-to-go, turn-key Research Data Management repository. It puts together the Invenio framework so you don't have to.

This documentation walks you through installing, configuring, and deploying your very own InvenioRDM instance. Furthermore, you can customize it for your needs and even add your own extensions! Follow the sections below in order to get a full picture of how to use InvenioRDM, or go straight to what you're interested in - each section is independent.

Install

To get started with InvenioRDM, you will want to install invenio-cli, our command line tool for creating and updating your instance. This tool in turn allows you to easily install an instance and manage it.
