Installing WDmodel¶
This document will step you through getting the WDmodel
package installed
on your system.
Installation Instructions¶
Here’s a minimal set of instructions to get up and running. We will eventually get this package up on PyPI and conda-forge, and that should make this even easier.
0. Install python:¶
We recommend using the anaconda python distribution to run this package. If you don’t have it already, follow the instructions here
Make sure you added the conda/bin dir to your path!
If you elect to use your system python, or some other distribution, we will assume you know what you are doing, and you can, skip ahead.
1. Get the code:¶
Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/gnarayan/WDmodel.git
cd WDmodel
2. Install everything:¶
Create a new environment from specification (Preferred! All dependencies resolved!)
conda env create -f docs/env/conda_environment_py[27|36]_[osx64|i686].yml
or
- Create a new environment from scratch (Let conda figure out dependencies and you sort out potential issues)
cp docs/env/condarc.example ~/.condarc conda create -n WDmodel source activate WDmodel conda install --yes --file dependencies_py[27|36].txt
3. Get the latest HST CDBS files:¶
These are available over FTP from [ftp://archive.stsci.edu/pub/hst/pysynphot/]
Untar them wherever you like, and set the PYSYN_CDBS
environment variable.
You need at least synphot1.tar.gz
and synphot6.tar.gz
.
export PYSYN_CDBS=place_you_untarred_the_files
4. Install the package [optional]:¶
python setup.py install
Extra¶
The instructions should be enough to get up and running, even without sudo
privileges. There’s a few edge cases on cluster environments though. These
notes may help:
