Official Client

We maintain the official NSoT client under a separate project called pyNSoT. PyNSoT provides a Python API client and an excellent CLI utility.

If you wish to utilize NSoT from the command-line, or follow along in the tutorial, you're going to need this!

Installing the client is as easy as running pip install pynsot. Setup is a breeze, too. If you run into any issues, please refer to the official pyNSoT documentation.

Demo

If you would like to run the demo, make sure you've got NSoT installed and that you have a fresh clone of the NSoT repository from GitHub.

If you don't already have a clone, clone it and change into the nsot directory:

$ git clone https://github.com/dropbox/nsot
$ cd nsot

Then to switch to the demo directory and fire up the demo:

$ cd nsot/demo
$ ./run_demo.sh

The demo will be available at http://localhost:8990/
