gneiss is a compositional statistics and visualization toolbox.
Note that gneiss is not compatible with python 2, and is compatible with Python 3.4 or later. gneiss is currently in alpha. We are actively developing it, and backward-incompatible interface changes may arise.
To install this package, it is recommended to use conda. An environment can installed as follows
conda create -n gneiss_env python=3
gneiss then can be installed as follows
source activate gneiss_env
pip install gneiss
To run through the tutorials, you'll need a few more packages, namely seaborn, biom-format and h5py.
These packages can be installed with conda as follows
