Pip-installable Issue

[pbouss]

Hello,
since I wanted to use DEHB in order to optimize our hyperparameters. I thought it would be great, if this package would be pip-installable. Via "pip install --editable git+https://github.com/automl/DEHB#egg=DEHB"
Are there any plans for doing so?

Hi,
That indeed is one of the desired changes, however, not sure if there are concrete plans for it right now.
However, if you want to include a setup.py and do a PR, I am willing to look, accept, merge it.

For immediate use, git clone and editing the PYTHONPATH variable to point to the DEHB folder should work.
The __init__ files should handle any relative imports. Please do let me know if there is an issue there.

Thanks, for the information and help. I just did a very tiny setup.py for myself. In the next few days, I will create a pull request for this, where you can then add the more specific details.

This issue: #6 already seems to make it pip installable.

Specifically, this commit fc5fd98 in there

However, that particular PR does more than that which I don't have the time to review rn. Anybody willing to extract the pip installable part from it and make a PR is welcome to do so. Or using that commit should also be fine till then.

Closing this as DEHB is available on PyPi now!
