Installation Guide

There are various ways to install this package.

Installing using conda

The package is available on the probcomp Anaconda cloud channel. The latest release can be installed into your conda environment using:

$ conda install -c probcomp trcrpm

To install the nightly "bleeding edge" version, which has not yet been tagged into a new release, use:

$ conda install -c probcomp/label/edge trcrpm

If you have not used conda before and do not have an environment, these steps show an end-to-end installation process:

$ wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda2-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -O miniconda.sh
$ bash miniconda.sh -b -p ${HOME}/miniconda
$ export PATH="${HOME}/miniconda/bin:${PATH}"
$ conda update --yes conda
$ conda create --name probcomp --channel probcomp/label/edge --yes python=2.7 trcrpm
$ source activate probcomp

Installing into a virtualenv (for Linux users)

All 3rd party dependencies are available in the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS standard repositories (apt), so the process should be straightforward. Replicate the instructions in the Dockerfile by writing the commands directly in your own Linux environment.

Installing into a docker image

If all else fails, you can obtain obtain a shell with the package by building the Dockerfile. The first step builds an image called probcomp/trcrpm, the second step runs a container with name trcrp and gives you a shell, and the third step activates the python virtualenv containing the software.

$ docker build -t probcomp/trcrpm -f docker/ubuntu1604 .
$ docker run -it --name trcrp probcomp/trcrpm /bin/bash
