Installation

pip

pip install ics-query

To verify:

ics-query --version

To upgrade:

pip install --upgrade ics-query

pipx

If you want ics-query as a standalone command without touching your system Python, use pipx. It installs the tool in an isolated environment and puts ics-query on your PATH automatically.

pipx install ics-query

If you do not have pipx yet:

pip install pipx
pipx ensurepath

To upgrade:

pipx upgrade ics-query

Homebrew (macOS)

brew install niccokunzmann/tap/ics-query

Version pinning

Version numbers follow a.b.c:

• c increments for each bug fix.

• b increments when new features are added.

• a increments when the interface or major assumptions change.

If you use ics-query in scripts, pin to the same a and let b and c float.
