Remove use of sudo for installing the Python driver. #1223

Closed kylieCat closed 5 years ago

kylieCat commented 6 years ago

It's not recommened to install third party packages to the system Python. It's a much better practice to use a virtual environment.

Description

The documentation for the Python driver uses sudo to install the driver. This will install the package to the system Python and is not the recommended way to install Python packages. Using a virtual environment is a best practice so it should be used in the docs.

Thank you for the changes. I don't know anything about Python best practices, so I'll merge this in a week if nobody speaks up by then and tells me I shouldn't.
