This is the tentative name of our software package that we will be releasing.

Development mode installation guide

To install it in development mode allows one to use the code with realtime modifications without having to do extra work to update the module somewhere in the site-packages.

To obtain a copy of the code, check out the following repository

git clone -b develop \
  ssh://$(whoami)@grandcentral.apam.columbia.edu:2000/home/cam1/git_repos/marianetti_software.git

If your username in on the grandcentral is different from the username on you current mathine, replace $(whoami) with the username on grandcentral.

And to install the code in development mode

python setup.py link

And follow the instructions to update PATH and PYTHONPATH. In this mode everything is installed into the .pylib and .pybin, at the root directory of the repository.

Otherwise a normal install:

pip install --user .

would work (it is recommended to install in user local directory).
