Having trouble installing? Read our step-by-step installation guide below.
When you are done installing, you can head over to the tutorial!
Check if your Python environment is already configured:
$ python3 --version
$ pip3 --version
If these packages are already installed, these commands should display version numbers for each step, and you can skip to the next step.
Otherwise, proceed with the instructions below to install them.
Fetch the relevant packages using apt, and install virtualenv using pip.
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install python3-dev python3-pip
Install the Homebrew package manager if you haven’t already.
Once you’re done, you can install Python3.
$ brew update
$ brew install python
Make sure the Microsoft VC++ Compiler is installed, so python can compile any dependencies. You can get the compiler from Visual Studio. Download the installer and select VC++ Build tools in the list. Install Python 3 (64-bit version) for Windows.
C:\> pip3 install -U pip
Tools like virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper provide isolated Python environments, which are cleaner than installing packages systemwide (as they prevent dependency conflicts). They also let you install packages without root privileges.
Create a new virtual environment (here we call it venv) by choosing a Python interpreter and making a ./venv directory to hold it:
$ python3 -m venv ./venv
Activate the virtual environment:
$ source ./venv/bin/activate
Create a new virtual environment by choosing a Python interpreter and making a .\venv directory to hold it:
C:\> python3 -m venv --system-site-packages ./venv
Activate the virtual environment:
C:\> .\venv\Scripts\activate
First make sure your pip version is up to date:
$ pip install -U pip
To install Minotor:
$ pip install minotor
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Minotor
You can now head over to the tutorial.
