Download and Install¶
Note: for now this section is only relative to installation under Debian-linux
GNU/Linux¶
EcoloPy requires python>=2.6 as well as several dependencies:
- python-scipy for optimization, and statistical tests.
- gmpy2 in order to deal with huge numbers necessary to compute K(D,A) in Etienne model
Only needed for drawing graph:
- python-matplotlib
- python-numpy
Install Python libraries:¶
Required:
apt-get install python-scipy
Accessory:
apt-get install python-matplotlib python-scipy
Install GMPY2¶
First check your version of python:
python --version
should be 2.6.x or 2.7.x
Than according to this install the corresponding dev:
apt-get install python2.x-dev
and gmp/mpfr libraries:
apt-get install libmpfr-dev libgmp3-dev
and afterward it is necessary to download and install gmpy2 from here:
http://code.google.com/p/gmpy/downloads/list
unzip archive
unzip gmpy2-2.xxx.zip
cd gmpy2-2.xxx
sudo python setup.py install
Installing EcoloPy¶
Once done EcoloPy can be downloaded from here:
https://gitorious.org/ecology/ecology/trees/master
Download the package as tar.gz and uncompress it:
tar xzvf ecology-ecology-master.tar.gz
once done, go in the ecology directory and install it:
sudo python setup.py install
finally it is a good thing to test if every thing is working fine.
Go to the test directory and run:
python test_all.py short
