Anaconda

Hello,
Thanks for this great package.
Is there an easy way to install pyromane with anaconda ?
Cheers

Good question. I've never put together an Anaconda installation procedure, but it is quite doable. I don't currently use Anaconda, so I'll have to hazard some very vague advice for now...

I've had some issues using the command line installation tools from the IPython interface before. If you can pull up a "raw" console instead of Anaconda's IPython interface, I recommend it. Once you do that, you SHOULD be able to use the standard installation instructions.

All of the installation instructions currently use pip. If you don't have pip installed, you can get it pretty easily. Normally, I wouldn't require users to install YET ANOTHER package just to be able to use my package, but pip is so integral to package management these days, I don't mind so much.

If you just can't get pip to work, there are ways to install the package manually. I don't generally recommend them because they require some expertise with Python package management. If you have trouble, let me know, and I'll try to support you through it. This could finally motivate me to write an Anaconda installation procedure.

Thanks a lot for your fat answer. I just got it to work by doing ‘pip install’ in the terminal in anaconda’s navigator (I found one can get this from clicking on the ‘play’-triangle in the ‘Environments' panel of the navigator), where one can choose a ’Terminal’. Just worked so far for me. Personally, I would anyhow not care so much, but I am using anaconda for teaching purposes, seams to be the easiest way to get basic things to run for python... Best regards, Roland

This question is now addressed in more detail in the PYroMat User and Developer Handbook. As of the time of this post, section 2.1.2 (installation with pip) on page 20 specifically mentions Anaconda.
