How do I install DyND for use with Python? #737

Closed mrocklin closed 7 years ago

mrocklin commented 8 years ago

Is it still this as recommended by the dynd-python readme?

conda install -c https://conda.binstar.org/mwiebe dynd-python

If so then could this be moved to a installation page on the docs?

Good catch. For some reason I thought we had already updated that. The best way to get dynd-python is to just run conda install dynd-python. We have development builds too, but those are a bit unstable. I'll update the readme accordingly.

mrocklin commented 8 years ago

Updating the readme sounds good. If you care about adoption then I strongly recommend putting a tiny page on libdynd.org.

Any thoughts on conda-forge? I have found it to be stable, convenient, and well maintained

insertinterestingnamehere commented 8 years ago

Yes. I'll add some instructions there as well. WRT conda-forge, it's a great system. We've tried to get libdynd up there before and got hung up on toolchain issues. Their current C++ compiler is too old to be able to build libdynd (or really any C++ 11 package). https://github.com/conda-forge/docker-images/pull/22 changes this, but it's been moving slowly.

Alrighty. Thanks for the pointer
