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:
matplotlib for plotting
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 .
