pip install inboard

Common errors

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'inboard' ↓

cause Inboard not installed or installed in wrong environment.

fix

Run 'pip install inboard' in your active environment.

error ImportError: cannot import name 'start' from 'inboard' (unknown location) ↓

cause Inboard version is too old or too new; API changed.

fix

Upgrade to >=0.87.0: 'pip install --upgrade inboard'.

error RuntimeError: This event loop is already running ↓

cause Calling start() inside an asynchronous context (e.g., Jupyter notebook).

fix

Run start() as a script (python your_app.py), not interactively.

Warnings

breaking Inboard dropped support for Python 3.9 in version 0.87.0. Upgrade your Python runtime to >=3.10. ↓

fix Use Python 3.10+ or pin inboard<0.87.0.

gotcha The 'start()' function only works if called from the main module (__name__ == '__main__'). Importing and calling directly will hang or fail. ↓

fix Wrap the call in an if __name__ == '__main__' guard.

deprecated The 'inboard_logging' module is deprecated; use 'inboard.logging_config' instead. ↓

fix Replace 'from inboard_logging import ...' with 'from inboard import logging_config'.

Install

pip install inboard[fastapi]

Imports

start
```
from inboard import start
```
logging_config
```
from inboard import logging_config
```

Quickstart

Basic usage: call start() to run the server. Configure via environment variables (e.g., INBOARD_SERVER_ADDRESS).

from inboard import start
import os

if __name__ == "__main__":
    start()
