We recommend you use Anaconda to install the necessary requirements for Starkit to work.
Once you have anaconda installed please make a new environment with the prerequisites for starkit in the following way. This will create an environment called starkit:
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/starkit/starkit/master/starkit_env27.yml # install using yml file into an environment called starkit. # If you want to call it something else, or already have a starkit enivornment, # you can change the -n argument conda env create --file starkit_env27.yml -n starkit source activate starkit
Then you can install any other packages you like with:
conda install <your package>
Once this is installed, there are two ways to install starkit. For simple use:
pip install git+https://github.com/starkit/starkit
For to download a full development version of starkit please do:
git clone https://github.com/starkit/starkit cd starkit python setup.py develop
