Installation Installation
============ ============
Install with pip Bonobo is `available on PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/bonobo>`_, and it's the easiest solution to get started.

Install from source Install from source
::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::::::
If you want to install an unreleased version, you can use git urls with pip. This is useful when using bonobo as a
dependency of your code and you want to try a forked version of bonobo with your software. You can use the git+http
string in your `requirements.txt` file. However, the best option for development on bonobo directly is not this one,
but editable installs (see below).
.. code-block:: shell-session .. code-block:: shell-session
$ pip install git+https://github.com/python-bonobo/bonobo.git@master#egg=bonobo $ pip install git+https://github.com/python-bonobo/bonobo.git@0.2#egg=bonobo
Editable install Editable install
:::::::::::::::: ::::::::::::::::
If you plan on making patches to Bonobo, you should install it as an "editable" package. If you plan on making patches to Bonobo, you should install it as an "editable" package, which is a really great pip feature.
Pip will clone your repository in a source directory and create a symlink for it in the site-package directory of your
python interpreter.
.. code-block:: shell-session .. code-block:: shell-session
$ pip install --editable git+https://github.com/python-bonobo/bonobo.git@master#egg=bonobo $ pip install --editable git+https://github.com/python-bonobo/bonobo.git@0.2#egg=bonobo
Note: `-e` is the shorthand version of `--editable`. .. note:: You can also use the `-e` flag instead of the long version.
If you can't find the "source" directory, try trunning this:
.. code-block:: shell-session
$ python -c "import bonobo; print(bonobo.__path__)"
Another option is to have a "local" editable install, which means you create the clone by yourself and make an editable install
from the local clone.
.. code-block:: shell-session
  $ git clone git@github.com:python-bonobo/bonobo.git
$ cd bonobo
$ pip install --editable .
You can develop on this clone, but you probably want to add your own repository if you want to push code back and make pull requests.
I usually name the git remote for the main bonobo repository "upstream", and my own repository "origin".
.. code-block:: shell-session
$ git remote rename origin upstream
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:hartym/bonobo.git
Of course, replace my github username by the one you used to fork bonobo. You should be good to go!
