pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/mikeqfu/pyrcs.git
To test if PyRCS is correctly installed, try to import the package via an interpreter shell:
>>> import pyrcs
>>> pyrcs.__version__ # Check the current release
The current release version is: 0.2.15
Note
If you are using a virtual environment, ensure that it is activated.
It is recommended to add
--upgrade
(or-U
) when you usepip install
(see the instruction above) so as to get the latest stable release of the package.For more general instructions, check the “Installing Packages”.
PyRCS has not yet been tested with Python 2. For users who have installed both Python 2 and Python 3, it would be recommended to replace
pip
withpip3
. But you are more than welcome to volunteer testing the package with Python 2 and any issues should be logged/reported onto the Issues page.
