Installation
************
Requirements
============
**astroplan** works on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
It requires Python 2.7 or 3.5+ (2.6 and 3.2 or earlier are not
supported, 3.3 and 3.4 may work) as well as the following packages:
* `Numpy`_ (1.10 or later)
* `Astropy`_ (v1.3 or later)
* `pytz`_
Optional packages:
* `Matplotlib`_
* `astroquery`_
First-time Python users may want to consider an all-in-one Python installation
package, such as the `Anaconda Python Distribution
<http://continuum.io/downloads>`_ which provides all of the above dependencies.
Installation
============
You can install the stable version of astroplan from PyPI with::
pip install astroplan
or from anaconda::
conda install -c astropy astroplan
Alternatively, you can install the latest developer version of astroplan by
cloning the git repository::
git clone https://github.com/astropy/astroplan
...then installing the package with::
cd astroplan
python setup.py install
Testing
=======
If you want to check that all the tests are running correctly with your Python
configuration, start up python, and type::
import astroplan
astroplan.test()
If there are no errors, you are good to go!
.. note::
If you want to run the tests that access the internet, you'll need to
replace the last line above with ``astroplan.test(remote_data=True)`` and
have an active connection to the internet. Also, if you want the tests
that check plotting to work, you need `Matplotlib`_, `pytest-mpl`_, and
`Nose`_.
More
====
astroplan follows `Astropy`_'s guidelines for affiliated packages--installation
and testing for the two are quite similar! Please see Astropy's
`installation page <http://astropy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>`_
for more information.
