Stable release
--------------

Installing WTDpy via `pip`_ is the preferred method, as it will always install the most recent stable release. If you do not have
`pip`_ installed, this `Python installation guide`_ can guide you through the process.

To install WTDpy, run this command in your terminal:

.. code-block:: bash

    # Use pip to install wtdpy
    pip install wtdpy

.. _pip: https://pip.pypa.io
.. _Python installation guide: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/starting/installation/


From sources
------------

The sources for WTDpy can be downloaded from the `Github repo`_.

You can either clone the public repository:

.. code-block:: bash

    # Use git to clone WTDpy
    git clone https://github.com/uijl/wtdpy/


Or download the `tarball`_:

.. code-block:: bash

    # Use curl to obtain the tarball
    curl  -OL https://github.com/uijl/wtdpy/tarball/master


Once you have a copy of the source, you can install it with:

.. code-block:: bash

    # Use python to install
    python setup.py install
