New to Python?

To setup Python on your system, check guidance on the viresclient installation notes

Install latest development version

Assuming you have a compatible system with git, a fortran compiler, and a Python>=3.8 installation with a recent version of pip, you can install the latest development version from the staging branch with:

pip install git+https://github.com/Swarm-DISC/SwarmPAL@staging#egg=swarmpal[dsecs]

Fotran compiler?

If you are using conda, you can get one from:

conda install conda-forge::fortran-compiler

The fortran compiler is required in order to install the dependency, apexpy. It may be better to try installing apexpy first and debugging that if you run into trouble.

To bypass installation of apexpy (so disabling usage of the DSECS toolbox), you can use pip without the [dsecs] option:

pip install git+https://github.com/Swarm-DISC/SwarmPAL@staging#egg=swarmpal

Install for local development

Clone the repository and install it in editable mode:

git clone https://github.com/Swarm-DISC/SwarmPAL
pip install -e SwarmPAL/
