PKG: new installPsychoPy.py
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Should work on multiple platforms (and hopefully
several versions/distros of Linux).

I've merged ideas from Flavio and Florian:
- switched to a Python script (instead of Bash) to support different platforms
- switched (for now) to building wxpython on linux instead of searching for the wheel. Hope to add that back as a faster option later

For now this suggests creating a virtual env and suggests using py3.10 but none of that is enforced and we don't help (e.g. installing the correct python). We could look at that for future improvements. Should be able to execute this using:

```
python3.10 -m venv psychopy_env3.10
source psychopy_env3.10/bin/activate
python installPsychoPy.py
```

"""This script will install PsychoPy to the current Python environment.
For Linux installations, the script will fetch the supported linux distros for wxPython
and interactively select the distro and version to download the appropriate .whl file.
After that the script will install PsychoPy using pip.
NB: At present, for windows and MacOS you may as well just use `pip install psychopy` but
in the future we may add some additional functionality here, like adding application
shortcuts, checking/recommending virtual envs etc.
