Using PIP to Install from PyPI

The following instruction are using PIP (Package Installer for Python) as a package manager and PyPI (Python Package Index) as a source of Python packages.

Installing a Wheel Package from PyPI using PIP

Users of pyTooling can select if the want to install a basic variant of pyTooling. See DEP for more details.

Linux/MacOS

# Basic sphinx-reports package
pip3 install pyVHDLModel

Windows

# Basic sphinx-reports package
pip install pyVHDLModel

Developers can install further dependencies for documentation generation (doc) or running unit tests (test) or just all (all) dependencies.

Linux/MacOS

With Documentation Dependencies

# Install with dependencies to generate documentation
pip3 install pyVHDLModel[doc]

With Unit Testing Dependencies

# Install with dependencies to run unit tests
pip3 install pyVHDLModel[test]

All Developer Dependencies

# Install with all developer dependencies
pip install pyVHDLModel[all]

Windows

With Documentation Dependencies

# Install with dependencies to generate documentation
pip install pyVHDLModel[doc]

With Unit Testing Dependencies

# Install with dependencies to run unit tests
pip install pyVHDLModel[test]

All Developer Dependencies

# Install with all developer dependencies
pip install pyVHDLModel[all]

Updating from PyPI using PIP

Linux/MacOS

pip install -U pyVHDLModel

Windows

pip3 install -U pyVHDLModel

Uninstallation using PIP

Linux/MacOS

pip uninstall pyVHDLModel

Windows

pip3 uninstall pyVHDLModel

Using setup.py (legacy)

See sections above on how to use PIP.

Installation using setup.py

setup.py install

Local Packaging and Installation via PIP

For development and bug fixing it might be handy to create a local wheel package and also install it locally on the development machine. The following instructions will create a local wheel package (*.whl) and then use PIP to install it. As a user might have a sphinx-reports installation from PyPI, it's recommended to uninstall any previous sphinx-reports packages. (This step is also needed if installing an updated local wheel file with same version number. PIP will not detect a new version and thus not overwrite/reinstall the updated package contents.)

Ensure packaging requirements <DEP/packaging> are installed.

Linux/MacOS

cd <sphinx-reports>

# Package the code in a wheel (*.whl)
python -m build --wheel

# Uninstall the old package
python -m pip uninstall -y pyVHDLModel

# Install from wheel
python -m pip install ./dist/pyVHDLModel-0.28.0-py3-none-any.whl

Windows

cd <sphinx-reports>

# Package the code in a wheel (*.whl)
py -m build --wheel

# Uninstall the old package
py -m pip uninstall -y pyVHDLModel

# Install from wheel
py -m pip install .\dist\pyVHDLModel-0.28.0-py3-none-any.whl
