Installation

We recommend you to set up a Python virtual environment. To do so with Python2 you need virtualenv, you should be able to install it using for example one of the following commands:

$ apt-get install python-virtualenv
$ easy_install virtualenv
$ pip install virtualenv

Or for Python3:

$ apt-get install python3-venv
$ pip3 install virtualenv

Once virtualenv is installed you can create your own environment by running the following commands in the project directory:

$ virtualenv venv
New python executable in venv/bin/python
Installing setuptools, pip, wheel...done.

Or with Python3;

$ python3 -m venv venv

Then each time you want to use your virtual environment you have to activate it by running this command:

$ . venv/bin/activate

Finally you have to install in your environment the Qarnot SDK:

pip install qarnot

If you plan to send large files to the API, we advise you to install the optional requests-toolbelt dependency in order not to overuse your memory:

pip install requests-toolbelt

You are now ready to use the Qarnot SDK.
