Installing#

There are different ways to install Bordado:

Using the conda package manager (or mamba) that comes with the Anaconda, Miniconda, or Miniforge distributions:

conda install bordado --channel conda-forge

Using the pip package manager:

python -m pip install bordado

You can use pip to install the latest unreleased version from GitHub (not recommended in most situations):

python -m pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/fatiando/bordado

Tip

The commands above should be executed in a terminal. On Windows, use the cmd.exe or the “Anaconda Prompt” / “Miniforge Prompt” app if you’re using Anaconda / Miniforge.

Which Python?

See Supported Python versions for a list of supported Python versions.

Note

We recommend using the Miniforge distribution to ensure that you have the conda package manager available. Installing Miniforge does not require administrative rights to your computer and doesn’t interfere with any other Python installations in your system. It’s also much smaller than the Anaconda distribution and is less likely to break when installing new software.

Dependencies#

The required dependencies should be installed automatically when you install Bordado using conda or pip. Optional dependencies have to be installed manually.
