Installation

You can install searcch-importer in any of the normal Python ways. Most likely, you’ll want to install it locally, not system wide. You can install into a virtualenv (https://docs.python-guide.org/dev/virtualenvs/), or into your local user account.

The importer supports both Python 2 and 3, but you should use Python 3 if at all possible.

virtualenv Install

Change to a directory where you’d like to store your virtualenv dir (e.g., /tmp). Then run the following commands to install searcch-importer without manually grabbing a copy of the source:

virtualenv --python python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install git+https://gitlab.flux.utah.edu/searcch/importer.git

Local Install

You can install searcch-importer in your home directory (e.g., ~/.local on UNIX-like systems) like this:

pip install --user git+https://gitlab.flux.utah.edu/searcch/importer.git

Source Code Install

If you have a copy of the source code (https://gitlab.flux.utah.edu/searcch/importer), you can run this command in the source code directory:

python setup.py install --user

This will install the importer and its dependencies in your home directory (e.g., ~/.local on UNIX-like systems).
