Installation

The easiest way to install astrocalc is to use pip (here we show the install inside of a conda environment):

conda create -n astrocalc python=3.7 pip
conda activate astrocalc
pip install astrocalc

Or you can clone the github repo and install from a local version of the code:

git clone git@github.com:thespacedoctor/astrocalc.git
cd astrocalc
python setup.py install

To upgrade to the latest version of astrocalc use the command:

pip install astrocalc --upgrade

To check installation was successful run astrocalc -v. This should return the version number of the install.

Development

If you want to tinker with the code, then install in development mode. This means you can modify the code from your cloned repo:

git clone git@github.com:thespacedoctor/astrocalc.git
cd astrocalc
python setup.py develop
