Pythonect works with Python version 2.6 and greater, but it will not work (yet) with Python 3. Dependencies are listed in setup.py and will be installed automatically as part of any of the techniques listed below.
Easiest way to install Pythonect is to use pip:
pip install Pythonect
And second to easiest is with easy_install:
easy_install Pythonect
Note
Using easy_install is discouraged. Why? Read here.
Regular development happens at our GitHub repository. Grabbing the cutting edge version might give you some extra features or fix some newly discovered bugs. We recommend not installing from the git repo unless you are actively developing Pythonect. To clone the git repository and install it locally:
git clone git://github.com/ikotler/pythonect.git
cd pythonect
python setup.py install
Alternatively, if you use pip, you can install directly from the git repository:
pip install \
git+git://github.com/ikotler/pythonect.git@master#egg=pythonect \
-r https://github.com/ikotler/pythonect/raw/master/doc/requirements.txt
