Install on Windows

Installation on Windows

Windows is not officially supported, since we can't test installations automatically. This might change as soon as TravisCI add supports for Windows. but we added preliminary continuous integration for Windows via Appveyor.

Installation from package

We do not (yet) build precompiled Windows packages (see issue #158), so the only working installation is from source.

Installation from source

Install the prerequisites:

• Install Miniconda Python version 2.7 for Windows
• Install Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7
• Install Git
• Install Ffmpeg and add it to your PATH (needed for other sound formats than .wav)

Install the needed conda packages

conda config --set always_yes yes --set changeps1 no
conda update -q conda
conda config --add channels pypi
conda install pip cython numpy scipy nose

Install madmom from source:

git clone --recursive --depth 1 https://github.com/CPJKU/madmom.git
cd madmom
python setup.py install

Run the tests:

python setup.py test

You should have a working madmom installation now.

Notes

Python 3 builds currently fail, please let us know if you know how to fix it (see issue #159).
