To use NPZ files as store:

To run the unit tests:

To build the documentation:

Installation

The easiest way to install Psyrun is with pip:

pip install psyrun

All required dependencies should be installed automatically. If you want to use features that require the optional NumPy dependency, it is best to install NumPy first as the installation sometimes fails otherwise.

To be able to use the NPZ store:

pip install numpy
pip install 'psyrun[npz]'

To be able to use the HDF5 store:

pip install numpy
pip install 'psyrun[h5]'

Development install

To make a development install from the most recent Git checkout:

git clone https://github.com/jgosmann/psyrun.git
cd psyrun
pip install -e .

Usage

You can access the Psyrun API in Python programs with:

import psyrun

The command line interface is available with the psy command. Type psy --help or psy <command> --help to display help on the command line.

Running unit tests

Make sure all test requirements are installed with:

cd psyrun
pip install -r requirements-tests.txt

Then the tests can be run with the py.test command or the tox command to test multiple Python versions.

Building the documentation

Make sure all required packages for the documentation are installed with:

cd psyrun
pip install -r requirements-docs.txt

To build the documentation:

cd psyrun/doc
make html

Open psyrun/doc/build/html/index.html to view the documentation.
