This project is using Swiss Ephemeris with swephgo as a wrapper. You will also need Swiss Ephemem library and ephemeris files.
Download the Swiss Ephemeris Library here. After compiling the library, copy the libswe.so file to /usr/local/lib/
$ cp libswe.so /usr/local/lib/
Download some ephemeris files and puth them in designated folder. sepl_18.se1 is a good place to start.
Finally you will need some shell variables (timezone, geographical position, location of Swiss Ephemeris files on your system)
export CITY="Europe/London"
export LATITUDE="51.5072"¬
export LONGITUDE="0.1276"¬
export HOUSE_SYSTEM="Placidus"
export SWISSPATH="/usr/local/share/sweph/ephe"
or put variables in .env file looking like .env.example
