Installation
============
Pint has no dependencies except Python_ itself. In runs on Python 3.6+.
You can install it (or upgrade to the latest version) using pip_::
$ pip install -U pint
That's all! You can check that Pint is correctly installed by starting up python, and importing Pint:
.. code-block:: python
>>> import pint
>>> pint.__version__ # doctest: +SKIP
Or running the test suite:
.. code-block:: python
>>> pint.test()
.. note:: If you have an old system installation of Python and you don't want to
mess with it, you can try `Anaconda CE`_. It is a free Python distribution by
Continuum Analytics that includes many scientific packages. To install pint
from the conda-forge channel instead of through pip use::
$ conda install -c conda-forge pint
Getting the code
----------------
You can also get the code from PyPI_ or GitHub_. You can either clone the public repository::
$ git clone git://github.com/hgrecco/pint.git
Download the tarball::
$ curl -OL https://github.com/hgrecco/pint/tarball/master
Or, download the zipball::
$ curl -OL https://github.com/hgrecco/pint/zipball/master
Once you have a copy of the source, you can embed it in your Python package, or install it into your site-packages easily::
