Installation

For best results, we recommend installing ARTIST in a separate virtual environment:

$ python3 -m venv ./ARTIST
$ source ./ARTIST/bin/activate
$ pip install --upgrade pip

You can install the latest stable version of ARTIST directly from PyPI using:

$ pip install artist

To install ARTIST with extra dependencies to run the tutorials you will need to use:

$ pip install "artist[tutorials]"

or for the extra dependencies required for the examples:

$ pip install "artist[examples]"

Alternatively, you can install the latest development version directly from the official GitHub repository:

$ pip install https://github.com/ARTIST-Association/ARTIST

If you want to get the source code and modify it, you can clone the source code using git and install ARTIST with pip:

$ git clone https://github.com/ARTIST-Association/ARTIST
$ pip install -e .

Alternatively, if you wish to install the developer dependencies:

$ pip install -e ."[dev]"

You can check whether your installation was successful by importing ARTIST in Python:

import artist
