Installation#
Note
hbMEP installation requrires Python>=3.11. Replace python
with a compatible version, for e.g., python3.11
On Linux / MacOS#
The recommended way to install hbMEP is to create a new virtual environment and install the package in it with pip. This way, you can avoid conflicts with other packages that you may have installed in your system.
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install hbmep
If you don’t have a compatible version of Python installed, you can use conda to create a new environment with the required version of Python.
conda create -n python-311 python=3.11 -y
conda activate python-311
python -m venv .venv
conda deactivate
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install hbmep
Now, the Python interpreter should be located at .venv/bin/python
. You can use this to run your scripts that make use of hbMEP.
On Windows#
Use conda to create a new environment with the required version of Python.
conda create -n python-311 python=3.11 -y
conda activate python-311
python -m venv .venv
conda deactivate
Now, activate the virtual environment and install hbMEP.
.venv\Scripts\activate
pip install hbmep
