Installation
Installing via PyPI
You can install the latest version of datalad-gooey
from PyPI. It is recommended to
use a dedicated virtualenv:
# Create and enter a new virtual environment (optional)
python3 -m venv ~/.venvs/datalad-gooey
source ~/.venvs/datalad-gooey/bin/activate
# Install from PyPI
pip install datalad_gooey
Dependencies
Because this is an extension to datalad
, the installation process also installs
the datalad Python package, although all recursive dependencies (such as git-annex
)
are not automatically installed. For complete instructions on how to install datalad
and git-annex
, please refer to the DataLad Handbook.
Installing on Windows
The current version of datalad-gooey
comes with two installers, a full installer
and a gooey-only installer. The full
installer will install datalad-gooey
as well as git
and git-annex
.
it requires admin privileges to execute successfully. The gooey-only installer
will only install datalad-gooey
. It can be executed as admin user or as
non-admin user. If you use the gooey-only installer, git
and git-annex
have
to be provided by other means, e.g. an administrator installs them.
Note: if the full installer is executed and the system has already a newer
version of git
or git-annex
installed, the git
or
git-annex
-installer can be canceled and installation of the remaining
components will continue.
The installers can be downloaded here.
Installing on Linux
Install DataLad Gooey via PyPI while specifying the --user
flag:
pip install --user datalad_gooey
Then run the following line to ensure that the application's desktop file is generated:
datalad gooey --postinstall
Installing on macOS
macOS application pending
Until the macOS application is available to allow standard installation into the Applications folder, macOS users can install DataLad Gooey via PyPI.
# Install from PyPI
pip install datalad_gooey
