pycoin
is a command line utility to semi-randomly choose a movie to watch from the list of movies you would like to see.
The best way to install pycoin
at the moment is via the following procedure. In addition to the source of the script, which you can obtain via git clone https://github.com/scolby33/pycoin.git
, this also requires virtualenv
and pip
. Most Python installations come with pip
, but if yours does not, the docs here provide an overview of the process of getting this essential tool. Once pip
is installed, getting virtualenv
is as simple as pip install virtualenv
.
Once the requirements are met, switch to the root directory of the pycoin
source (the folder containing setup.py
) and execute the following commands:
virtualenv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install --editable .
Afterwards, pycoin
can be executed by name as long as you're in the virtualenv. To leave the virtualenv, execute deactivate
. To return to an existing installation, just navigate to the root directory of the pycoin
source again and run source venv/bin/activate
.
