Installation¶
henrietta
is a Python package. It’s already installed on
scorpius
, but you may want to install it on your own computer. These
are instructions to help do that. If you have any questions, please come
talk to Will or Zach!
Installing on scorpius¶
The latest versions of these tools will always already be available on
the scorpius
machines at CU Boulder. To access them, simply run the
command
source henrietta
from the UNIX prompt. This will activate an environment that has all the
basic tools you need for playing with Kepler and TESS light curve data,
as well as the tools in our henrietta
package. This not only
includes the specific Python package described here, it also activates a
whole environment full of useful tools.
If you don’t want to run this command every time you open a terminal,
you can include it as a shortcut that opens automatically. To do so,
edit the file called ~/.bashrc
in your home directory on
scorpius
, and add the line source henrietta
to the bottom of the
file. Save it, and then next time you open a terminal, you should start
out in the henrietta environment.
Installing on your own computer¶
If you want to install on henrietta
on your own computer, please
skip on over to the github
repository, and follow the
installation instructions listed there. We’ll be updating the
henrietta
package throughout the semester. To get the latest, you’ll
need to upgrade the package periodically.
