Installing Tigger
=================

Ubuntu package
--------------

Enable the
`radio astro launchpad PPA <https://launchpad.net/~radio-astro/+archive/ubuntu/main>`_
and install the python-tigger package.


from pypi or from source
------------------------

requirements:

* Assorted python packages: PyQt4, PyQwt5, pyfits, numpy, scipy, astLib.
With the exception of astLib, these are already present in most Linux
distros. astLib may be downloaded here: http://astlib.sourceforge.net/

* Purr/Kittens. Easiest to install the purr package from a MeqTrees binary
distribution (see http://www.astron.nl/meqwiki/Downloading). Alternatively,
check it out from svn (see below), and make sure the parent
of the Kittens directory is in your PYTHONPATH.

To obtain on ubuntu you can run::

$ sudo apt-get install python-kittens python-pyfits python-astlib python-scipy python-numpy python-qt4 python-qwt5-qt4 libicu48

now from pip::

$ pip install astro-tigger

or from source::

$ git clone https://github.com/ska-sa/tigger
$ cd tigger
$ python setup.py install
