There are multiple options to download the source code for PlasmaPy. The simplest is to select "Clone or Download" on our repository page. This will provide an option to download a zip file plus information on how to clone the repository. If you have git installed on your computer and you would like to use HTTPS (which is the default and easier to set up), then run:
git clone https://github.com/PlasmaPy/PlasmaPy.git
If you have set up an SSH key, an equivalent and more secure command is:
git clone [email protected]:PlasmaPy/PlasmaPy.git
The contributing to PlasmaPy guide has instructions on how to fork a repository so that you may make pull requests.
In the top level directory, run
pip install .
or
python setup.py install
We are officially on PyPI and can be installed via
pip install plasmapy
Though be warned that the version on PyPI is our distribution version and not suitable for developemnt. If you wish to contribute to the project, please install from Github.
We're not on conda just yet, but we're working on it!
