Installation
We provide two main ways of installation,
either directly via pip or using the fully packaged installer
that can be found in our releases.
Fully packaged installer
As of version v3, the fully packaged release is created with
PyApp.
This has various advantages for our own workflow,
however, requires that you have an internet connection when first starting the software.
PyApp will create a virtual environment for you and install the software there,
however, will need to download all dependencies in the process.
Installation via pip
We highly recommend using pipx
to install the software.
To do so,
simply run the following command in your terminal:
This will install the software and all its dependencies in an isolated environment.
You can then run the software by simply typing rimsschemedrawer in your terminal.
Installation via the fully packaged installer
Download the latest release from here by choosing the appropriate file for your operating system. After downloading, simply run the file.
Tip
We recommend that you try out our latest release candidate! The main difference to the future full release is, that it currently does not include an operating system installer. However, you will be able to run the software by simply double-clicking the executable.
Note
The files are not signed and you might get a warning from your operating system.
