Installation

Before you attempt to build and install this package, please ensure that you have all the requirements met.

We highly recommend that you make your installation under a python virtual environment such as virtualenv or pipenv.

To install this package run (use -e for development mode)

   pip install [-e] .

Running inside a virtual environment

When running inside a virtual environment you will need to provide access to system libraries. You can achieve this by using --system-site-packages when setting up your environment or through vext.

If you opt to install vext, please install the PyGObject module with:

   pip install vext vext.gi

You also need to ensure that the following packages are installed inside the virtual environment (as well as their system dependencies):

   pip install pygobject gobject
