| Installation |
| ============ |
| |
| What follows are the installation instructions for Agile OODT. |
| |
| |
| Quick Instructions |
| ------------------ |
| |
| As a user with administrative privileges, run either:: |
| |
| pip oodt |
| |
| or:: |
| |
| easy_install oodt |
| |
| depending on what's available on your system. You're done! |
| |
| |
| Full Instructions |
| ----------------- |
| |
| Agile OODT requires the Python_ programming language. We recommend version 2.4 |
| or later. As of this writing, 2.7 is the latest stable version. If Python is |
| not yet installed on your system, you can find binary and and source |
| distributions from the Python website. |
| |
| To test if a correct version of Python is available on your system, run:: |
| |
| python -V |
| |
| You should see output similar to:: |
| |
| Python 2.7 |
| |
| indicating the version of Python installed. You may then proceed to install |
| Agile OODT. |
| |
| By far the easiest, recommended, and encouraged way to install Agile OODT is |
| either with Pip_ or EasyInstall_. If your Python installation has either of |
| these installers available to it, then one command is all you need to run in |
| order to download, build, install, and generate command-line tools all in one |
| go for all users on your system. For Pip users, it's:: |
| |
| pip oodt |
| |
| And for EasyInstall users, it's:: |
| |
| easy_install oodt |
| |
| Be sure to run that command as an administrative user. For example, on Mac OS |
| X and other Unix systems, you might need to run either of:: |
| |
| sudo pip oodt |
| sudo easy_install oodt |
| |
| |
| Installing From Source |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| |
| If neither Pip nor EasyInstall are available, you can still make a proper |
| installation of Agile OODT by building it from its source code. Just follow |
| these instructions: |
| |
| 1. Download the Agile OODT source distribution and extract the source |
| archive. The source distribution is packaged as a gzip'd tar archive. |
| 2. Change the current working directory to the newly extracted directory. |
| 3. As an administrative user, run: ``python setup.py install`` |
