Readme - dependencies #123

Closed warrenarea closed 8 years ago

warrenarea commented 10 years ago

When I first started out, I remember having a lot of issues setting up the dependencies.

Particularly getting the right version of each.

As this project has aged, so has the compiler + dependencies python, greenlet, gevent, hidapi, etc.

I recommend placing the versions of each for clarification.

I don't have linux set up at the moment, so I can't verify what versions work for that, but I can verify that these versions worked for Windows 7:

` pywinusb 0.2.9 - https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pywinusb/pywinusb-0.2.9.zip pycrypto 2.6 - http://www.voidspace.org.uk/downloads/pycrypto26/pycrypto-2.6.win32-py2.7.exe gevent 1.0.1 - www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#gevent -> gevent‑1.0.1.win32‑py2.7.exe greenlet 0.4.2 - https://pypi.python.org/packages/2.7/g/greenlet/greenlet-0.4.2.win32-py2.7.exe#md5=0ea8f5a14f8554919e1a136bc042d76c Pygame(optional) 1.9.1 - http://pygame.org/ftp/pygame-1.9.1.win32-py2.7.msi Ctypes(optional) gccxml 0.9.0 - http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ctypes/gccxml/2008-08-12/gccxml-0.9.0-win32-x86.exe

` This will solve issues of people installing the latest versions of each to find they don't work.

Agreed, I'm considering changing the python library to use native multiprocessing instead of gevent. I'll check what I have installed on my linux VM. I believe all my OSs have the current versions of all the libraries installed however.

Might be a good idea to move this to a wiki page or a file. I'm pretty sure the latest versions still work though.

These should be installed using pip install emokit or python setup.py install now. With the exception of pygame. requirements.txt now specifies the versions I use.
