Installing#

Which Python?#

You’ll need Python 3.9 or greater. See Supported Python versions if you require support for older versions.

Dependencies#

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

Note

See Supported dependency versions for the our policy of oldest supported versions of each dependency.

Required:

The examples in documentation also use:

Installing with conda#

You can install Bordado using the conda package manager that comes with the Anaconda distribution:

conda install bordado --channel conda-forge

Tip

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.

Installing with pip#

Alternatively, you can also use the pip package manager:

python -m pip install bordado

Installing the latest development version#

You can use pip to install the latest source from Github:

python -m pip install https://github.com/fatiando/bordado/archive/main.zip

Alternatively, you can clone the git repository locally and install from there:

git clone https://github.com/fatiando/bordado.git
cd bordado
python -m pip install .
