Installation

Installing from PyPI

Yes, we have published tris on PyPI! To install tris and all its dependencies, the easiest method would be to use pip to query PyPI. This should, by default, be present in your Python installation. To, install run the following command in a terminal or Command Prompt / Powershell:

$ pip install tris

Depending on the OS, you might need to use pip3 instead. If the command is not found, you can choose to use the following command too:

$ python -m pip install tris

Here too, python or pip might be replaced with py or python3 and pip3 depending on the OS and installation configuration. If you have any issues with this, it is always helpful to consult Stack Overflow.

Installing from Source

To install from source, you need to get the following:

Git

Git is needed to install this repository. This is not completely necessary as you can also install the zip file for this repository and store it on a local drive manually. To install Git, follow this guide.

After you have successfully installed Git, you can run the following command in a terminal / Command Prompt etc:

This stores a copy in the folder codebase. You can then navigate into it using cd codebase.
