Installing Packages

Brooks Smith edited this page Feb 7, 2023 · 2 revisions

While some platforms try to provide ways of installing packages via their own package managers, you'll probably make your life easier, especially when you're doing development work, by using the Python's native package manager, pip.

Installation instructions are simple with pip:

  • If all you want to do is run a headless pyCUFSM: pip install pyCUFSM

  • If you want to run pyCUFSM with plotting capabilities: pip install pyCUFSM[plot]

  • If you want help develop pyCUFSM: pip install pyCUFSM[dev]

Alternatively, if you want to install ONLY the dependencies of pyCUFSM without installing pyCUFSM itself:

  • Usage dependencies only: pip install -r requirements.txt

  • Usage and plotting dependencies: pip install -r plot_dependencies.txt

  • Usage and development dependencies: pip install -r dev_requirements.txt
