Test running from Windows shell #25

Closed peplin closed 10 years ago

peplin commented 10 years ago

Is it possible to run the simulator from a Windows command prompt? Otherwise we'll need to add instructions on setting up Cygwin.

DaveMelcher commented 10 years ago

The Vehicle Sim uses pip to get all the requirements, and it looks like there are a number of ways to install pip on Windows. They might all result in slightly different setups. We already have a Cygwin section for Python developers, don't we?

The Cygwin instructions are fairly straightforward - something like: install Cygwin with the python and python-setuptools packages, easy_install pip and then pip install -r pip-requirements.txt. There may or may not be a reason you couldn't run the sim without Cygwin, though, and I think that's what I was wondering about when I created this issue.
