Installation

SourceSpec requires at least Python 3.6. All the required dependencies will be downloaded and installed during the setup process.

Using pip and PyPI (preferred method)

The latest release of SourceSpec is available on the Python Package Index.

You can install it easily through pip:

pip install sourcespec

From SourceSpec GitHub releases

Download the latest release from the releases page, in zip or tar.gz format, then:

pip install sourcespec-X.Y.zip

or

pip install sourcespec-X.Y.tar.gz

Where, X.Y is the version number (e.g., 1.2). You don’t need to uncompress the release files yourself.

From SourceSpec GitHub repository

If you need a recent feature that is not in the latest release (see the unreleased section in CHANGELOG), you want to use the source code from the SourceSpec GitHub repository.

For that, clone the project:

git clone https://github.com/SeismicSource/sourcespec.git

(avoid using the “Download ZIP” option from the green “Code” button, since version number is lost), then install the code from within the sourcespec main directory by running:

pip install .
