Installation¶

Install luxpy¶

Install miniconda

download the installer from: https://conda.io/miniconda.html or https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/)

e.g. https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Windows-x86_64.exe

Make sure ‘conda.exe’ can be found on the windows system path, if necessary do a manual add.

Create a virtual environment with full anaconda distribution by typing the following at the commandline:

>> conda create --name py36 python=3.6 anaconda

Activate the virtual environment:

>> activate py36

Install pip to virtual environment (just to ensure any packages to be

installed with pip to this virt. env. will be installed here and not globally):

>> conda install -n py36 pip

5a. Install luxpy package from pypi:

>> pip install luxpy

5b. Install luxpy package from anaconda:

>> conda install -c ksmet1977 luxpy

Note:	If any errors show up, try and do a manual install of the dependencies: scipy, numpy, pandas, matplotlib and setuptools, either using e.g. `>> conda install scipy` or `>> pip install scipy`, and try and reinstall luxpy using pip.

Use of LuxPy package in Spyder IDE¶

Install spyder in py36 environment:

>> conda install -n py36 spyder

Run spyder

>> spyder

To import the luxpy package, on Spyder’s commandline for the IPython kernel (or in script) type:

import luxpy as lx

Use of LuxPy package in Jupyter notebook¶

Install jupyter in py36 environment:

>> conda install -n py36 jupyter

Start jupyter notebook:

>> jupyter notebook

Open an existing or new notebook:

e.g. open “luxpy_basic_usage.ipynb” for an overview of how to use the LuxPy package.

To import LuxPy package type:

import luxpy as lx
