Install Dependencies

You will first need to install the various EMEN2 dependencies. They are all straight-forward to install, and can generally be installed using Python's easy_install system.

Install EMEN2

EMEN2 can be installed using either Python easy_install:

sudo easy_install emen2

Or by downloading the source, unpacking, and using Python distutils:

python ./setup.py build
sudo python ./setup.py install

Quick Start

Here is a "quick start" guide to install EMEN2, initialize an EMEN2 DB, and start the web server. The "-h" argument in the scripts below are references to a directory to keep the EMEN2 DB; the directory will be created if it does not exist.

python -m emen2.clients.clone -h $HOME/test_db -- --defs
python -m emen2.web.server -h $HOME/test_db
