============================================= Two-minute installation, setup and quickstart ============================================= Install and setup ================= Supposed you have a :doc:`virtual environment ` with the `pip` package installed. Then simply type:: pip install fireworks[mongomock] mkdir -p ~/.fireworks echo MONGOMOCK_SERVERSTORE_FILE: $HOME/.fireworks/mongomock.json > ~/.fireworks/FW_config.yaml echo '{}' > ~/.fireworks/mongomock.json lpad reset --password="$(date +%Y-%m-%d)" See that the database contains no workflows:: lpad get_wflows *Output*:: [] Add and display a workflow ========================== Add a script that prints the date as a single firework in a workflow:: lpad add_scripts 'date' -n date_printer_firework -w date_printer_workflow Let us display the workflow just added:: lpad get_wflows -d more *Output*:: { "state": "READY", "name": "date_printer_workflow--1", "created_on": "2024-06-07T15:05:02.096000", "updated_on": "2024-06-07T15:05:02.096000", "states": { "date_printer_firework--1": "READY" }, "launch_dirs": { "date_printer_firework--1": [] } } We have only one workflow with only one firework on the database. Run a workflow ============== Now we can run the firework in our workflow locally with this simple command:: rlaunch singleshot *Output*:: 2024-06-07 17:15:08,515 INFO Hostname/IP lookup (this will take a few seconds) 2024-06-07 17:15:08,517 INFO Launching Rocket 2024-06-07 17:15:08,608 INFO RUNNING fw_id: 1 in directory: /home/ubuntu 2024-06-07 17:15:08,610 INFO Task started: ScriptTask.

You can continue with the other tutorials and do local testing by using this setting. If you want to complete the more advanced tutorials, such as the :doc:`queue tutorial `, or use FireWorks productively on a computing cluster, then you should consider :doc:`installing and setting up FireWorks ` with a MongoDB server.
