Installing PyVOΒΆ
Information about this package, including latest releases, can be found at:
Source code can be found on GitHub at:
This implementation requires the following prerequisite packages:
- numpy
- astropy
If you install PyVO from a source distribution, these must be installed first.
As an Astropy affiliate, this package uses the Astropy build infrastructure.
Releases of PyVO are available from PyPI
;
thus, it and its prerequisites can be most easily installed using pip
:
pip install pyvo
Alternatively, you can download and unpack a source tar-ball (pyvo-x.x.tar.gz). To install directly into the python installation, type as root user inside the distributions root directory:
python setup.py install
To install into a special directory called, say, $MYPYVO (which need not require root permission), first be sure that astropy and numpy are in your PYTHONPATH (if they are also installed in a non-standard place). Next, try:
python setup.py install –home=$MYPYVO
To just try out PyVO in this directory, you can build it in “developer” mode via:
python setup.py build_ext –inplace
In this mode, update your PYTHONPATH to include the directory containing this file.
