Installation

Note

hbMEP requires Python >= 3.11. We recommend using Python 3.11, so replace python with 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 on 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 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
