It wraps the download and extraction of prebuilt JDK or JRE binaries from major vendors\u2014Adoptium (the default), Amazon Corretto, and Azul Zulu\u2014and places them in a standard location on your system. The library detects your OS and architecture automatically, but lets you override both if needed, and supports selecting between JDK (full development kit) and JRE (runtime only) installations.\n\nThe package has no external dependencies beyond Python's standard library, making it lightweight and easy to embed in automation scripts, CI/CD pipelines, or provisioning tools. It exposes three main functions: `install()` to fetch and place a JDK or JRE, `get_download_url()` to retrieve the download link without installing, and `download()` to fetch the binary to a temporary directory. This design lets you integrate JDK provisioning into larger workflows without forcing a specific installation path or download strategy.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to automate JDK provisioning in scripts or infrastructure code. The package is lightweight (no dependencies), actively maintained, permissively licensed, and covers the major OpenJDK vendors. Install it when you want to avoid manual JDK downloads or when you're building tooling that must work across multiple operating systems and architectures."},"id":"install-jdk","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/install-jdk","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/install-jdk.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/install-jdk/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-07-21","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"install-jdk","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"install-jdk allows you to easily install latest Java OpenJDK version.
