Usage

Dependencies

• horuslib built, and libhorus.so available either on the system path, or in this directory.

Create a Virtual Environment

Create a virtual environment and install dependencies.

$ python3 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip install pip -U       (Optional - this updates pip)
(venv) $ pip install -r requirements.txt

Install Package

Install package in a editable state. This type of installation allows a developer to make changes to the source code while retaining the installation entry points so it can be used like a normal install.

(venv) $ pip install -e .

Run

$ python -m horusgui.gui
