Development


electricitylci was developed in a variety of operating systems, using a mix of development environments and editors:

  • PyCharm Python IDE, Community Edition
  • Anaconda Spyder
  • Microsoft Visual Studio Code

That being said, you should be able to use whatever python tools you want to use/modify this package.

Some additional tips

If getting permissions to install the various required packages is troublesome, an alternative is to download the source for the packages from github and add those folders to the PYTHONPATH environment variable in your OS of choice. If you're using the Spyder IDE from Anaconda, you can add those folders to the PYTHONPATH manager (Tools ► PYTHONPATH manager).
