To install SWAG you must first make sure that the following dependencies are met:
The easiest way to do so is to use pip: a package management system for Python softwares. If Python is installed on your system pip should come with it, otherwise run
$ sudo apt-get install python-pip
For Mac users, the command
$ sudo easy_install pip
should do the work.
For Windows users installing the latest version of Python should provide access to pip in PowerShell.
After that, simply run
$ sudo pip install markdown
$ sudo pip install Pygments
You might get the following error if your network uses a proxy
Cannot fetch index base URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/
One solution is to specify your proxy configuration in the pip command:
$ sudo pip --proxy=http://username:password@proxy.example.com:port/
install markdown
You are now ready to install SWAG.
The easiest way to install SWAG is through git
:
$ git clone git@plmlab.math.cnrs.fr:melon359/swag.git
After that, on Linux system, simply run the setup.py
script and SWAG
should be ready for usage.
On other systems you have to make sure that the SWAG directory is added to the PYTHONPATH
enviromnent variable, which can be a tedious endeavour.
