Making BuildME pip installable? #59

Open CBreton026 opened 2 years ago

While working on #57, I made my version of BuildME pip installable so it's easier to call its function.

Would that be an interesting feature for you? It's only a minor change, I moved some information from init.py to a setup.py file. I can setup a pull request for a new 'develop' branch if you'd like!

Interesting! However, I have zero experience with that, unfortunately.

Would it be possible to automate the process entirely? There are quite a bunch of steps that need to be done manually. https://github.com/nheeren/BuildME/blob/master/docs/setup.md
Would this work with Anaconda too?

If you feel like making a PR, I would be happy to consider it. Or we have a quick chat before.

I sent a first PR (#64) to make BuildME pip installable. For now, this must be done after BuildME is installed/cloned; I am unsure if the whole installation process can be automated.

I am currently working in a conda virtual environment, and I had no problem installing it through pip (just like eppy).
