The current version of STARS is based on a refactoring to move from Numeric to Numpy. This version should work on the following platforms

Installation

Using Conda (All Platforms)

  1. git clone https://github.com/sjsrey/stars.git
  2. Install Anaconda Python Distribution <https://www.continuum.io/downloads>_
  3. conda create -n stars python=2
  4. conda activate stars
  5. pip install numpy==1.8 matplotlib scipy
  6. cd stars/stars; python -i starsgui.py

Vagrant under Ubuntu

Build and run the box:

  1. sudo apt-get install virtualbox
  2. sudo apt-get install vagrant
  3. vagrant up
  4. vagrant ssh
  5. cd stars
  6. python -i starsgui.py -i

The initial build will take some time, however future boots of the VM will be fast:

  1. vagrant up
  2. vagrant ssh
  3. cd stars
  4. python -i starsgui.py -i

If the following error is encountered::

    URL: ["https://vagrantcloud.com/ubuntu/trusty32"]
    Error: error setting certificate verify locations:
      CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt
      CApath: none

The solution on 15.04 is::

    cd /etc/ssl/certs
    sudo cp ca-certificates.crt ca-bundle.crt

Source

Currently only source installs are available:

  1. Download source archive from master_
  2. cd stars-master/stars
  3. python -i starsgui.py

Mac OS X Notes

There is a bug with Tk under Mavericks resulting in slow updates of the views. Installing Active Python <http://www.activestate.com/activepython>_ is a work-around.

The Tk bug has been fixed in Yosemite.

Windows Notes

STARS has been tested on the following versions:
