======= Hacking
Build
The API uses many critical resources that must be downloaded and/or prepared to be used. To do that, just run this command in the root path of the project
#. Install all building dependencies: pyparsing <http://pyparsing.wikispaces.com/>, epydoc <http://epydoc.sourceforge.net/>,
sphinx <http://sphinx.pocoo.org/>_.
-
(ubuntu 12.04):
.. code-block:: sh
$ sudo apt-get install python-qt4 qt4-dev-tools python-qt4-dev pyqt4-dev-tools $ sudo apt-get install python-distutils-extra $ sudo easy_install pyparsing epydoc sphinx
#. Run the build command:
.. code-block:: sh
$ cd ../../
$ make build
For more details check Makefile <https://github.com/Alfanous-team/alfanous/blob/master/Makefile>_
Install
To install the API from the source (After Build_ ):
.. code-block:: sh
$ sudo python setup.py install
A console interface will be installed automatically with the API:
.. code-block:: sh
$ alfanous-console -h
usage: alfanous-console [flags]
note: if you are looking for alfanous legacy code, you can find it under legacy branch
