Installation

crapssim can be installed in a couple of ways, depending on purpose.

Official release installation

For a normal user, it is recommended to install the official release. You will need an installation of python version 3.10 or newer.

pip install crapssim

Development installation

To contribute to the package, you need a few additional steps. With python version 3.10 or newer, you will need to fork the repository, clone it locally, then create a virtual environment and install the package locally in editable mode. Simply copy the following code (replacing your GitHub username in the first line) into a terminal at the desired directory.

Linux/Mac

git clone -b dev https://github.com/<YOUR-GITHUB-USERNAME>/crapssim.git
cd crapssim
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install -e .
pip install pytest

Windows

git clone -b dev https://github.com/<YOUR-GITHUB-USERNAME>/crapssim.git
cd crapssim
python3 -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate.bat
python -m pip install -e .
pip install pytest

Latest installation

If you only want to use the latest development sources and do not care about having a cloned repository, e.g. if a bug you care about has been fixed but an official release has not come out yet, then use this command:

pip install git+https://github.com/skent259/crapssim.git@main
