Instructions incomplete #5

Closed mjohn706 closed 10 years ago

mjohn706 commented 11 years ago

I can live with the fact that the instructions do not say which directory to be in when executing the commands "./emulate.py" etc., since that is easy to figure out. Harder is figuring out that the pip command line needs a '-r' option to use the requirements.txt file correctly, and I had to add 'sudo' to get it to complete w/o error on my machine.

The exactly command line I used was:

sudo pip install -r pip-requirements.txt

The instructions now cover the above topics, please close this issue.

[sudo] pip install -r pip-requirements.txt

In the case that "pip install -r pip-requirements.txt" doesn't work, is it better to recommend sudo, or virtualenv?

DaveMelcher commented 10 years ago

Doing both. Recommending VirtualEnv, and also pointing out the sudo option.
