Installation

surface-apps is currently written for Python 3.10 or higher.

Install Conda

To install surface-apps, you need to install Conda first.

We recommend to install Conda using miniforge.

Within a conda environment

You can install (or update) a conda environment with all the requires packages to run surface-apps. To do so you can directly run the Install_or_Update.bat file by double left clicking on it.

Install with conda

You can install the package using conda and the .lock files from a conda prompt:

conda env create --solver libmamba -n my-env -f environments/[the_desired_env].lock.yml

Install with PyPI

You should not install the package from PyPI, as the app requires conda packages to run. Still, you can install it in a prepared conda environment, telling pip not to install dependencies thanks to the --no-deps option.

From PyPI

To install the surface-apps package published on PyPI:

pip install -U --no-deps surface-apps

From a Git tag or branch

If the revision of the package is not on PyPI yet, you can install it from a Git tag:

pip install -U --no-deps --force-reinstall https://github.com/MiraGeoscience/surface-apps/archive/refs/tags/TAG.zip

Or to install the latest changes available on a given Git branch:

pip install -U --no-deps --force-reinstall https://github.com/MiraGeoscience/surface-apps/archive/refs/heads/BRANCH.zip

Note

The --force-reinstall option is used to make sure the updated version of the sources is installed, and not the cached version, even if the version number did not change. The -U or --upgrade option is used to make sure to get the latest version, on not merely reinstall the same version. As the package is aimed to be in a Conda environment, the option --no-deps is used to avoid installing the dependencies with pip, as they will be installed with conda.

From a local copy of the sources

If you have a git clone of the package sources locally, you can install surface-apps from the local copy of the sources with:

pip install -U --force-reinstall path/to/project_folder_with_pyproject_toml

Or in editable mode, so that you can edit the sources and see the effect immediately at runtime:

pip install -e -U --force-reinstall path/to/project_folder_with_pyproject_toml

Setup for development

To configure the development environment and tools, please see README-dev.rst.
