Installation
============
Since emcee is a pure Python module, it should be pretty easy to install.
All you'll need `numpy <https://numpy.org/>`_.
.. note:: For pre-release versions of emcee, you need to follow the
instructions in :ref:`source`.
Package managers
----------------
The recommended way to install the stable version of emcee is using
`pip <http://www.pip-installer.org/>`_
.. code-block:: bash
python -m pip install -U pip
pip install -U setuptools setuptools_scm pep517
pip install -U emcee
or `conda <https://conda.io>`_
.. code-block:: bash
conda update conda
conda install -c conda-forge emcee
Distribution packages
---------------------
Some distributions contain `emcee` packages that can be installed with the
system package manager as listed in the `Repology packaging status
<https://repology.org/project/python:emcee/versions>`_. Note that the packages
in some of these distributions may be out-of-date. You can always get the
current stable version via `pip` or `conda`, or the latest development version
as described in :ref:`source` below.

From source
-----------
emcee is developed on `GitHub <https://github.com/dfm/emcee>`_ so if you feel
like hacking or if you like all the most recent shininess, you can clone the
source repository and install from there
.. code-block:: bash
python -m pip install -U pip
python -m pip install -U setuptools setuptools_scm pep517
git clone https://github.com/dfm/emcee.git
cd emcee
python -m pip install -e .
Test the installation
---------------------
To make sure that the installation went alright, you can execute some unit and
integration tests.
To do this, you'll need the source (see :ref:`source` above) and
`py.test <https://docs.pytest.org>`_.
You'll execute the tests by running the following command in the root
directory of the source code:
.. code-block:: bash
python -m pip install -U pytest h5py
python -m pytest -v src/emcee/tests
This might take a few minutes but you shouldn't get any errors if all went
as planned.
