Use the KNIME interface to install the extensions (Help → Install New Software), as described in Installing and Updating KNIME Extensions. The latest update site is available here. The extensions are also available as a zipped update site here, and the free nodes are available here. You will need to use your email address and password for the Schrödinger web site to download the update site (but not the free nodes).

Check the compatibility in Article 1111 before adding the extensions to a standalone KNIME installation. For instance, starting with the 2017-1 release, the extensions are no longer compatible with KNIME 2.12.

When you have obtained an update site, use it to install the Schrödinger KNIME extensions into your standalone KNIME installation.

You must also install the corresponding Schrödinger software release (which you can obtain here) and set up the environment (see Article 1696). The extensions will not work without a Schrödinger software installation.

You can use the command-line script KNIME_install.py to install extensions. Use the following command to find out how to use the script:

"$SCHRODINGER/run" -FROM knime KNIME_install.py -h

This script is included in the Schrödinger installation, and can also be downloaded from https://www.schrodinger.com/KNIME_install/KNIME_install.zip
