INSTALL

Installation instructions for xastropy.

The following assumes you use Anaconda to install Python.
It also assumes you will use Python 2.7, although I am trying
 to use standard hooks toward Python 3

1.  Install Python with Anaconda

2.  Install xastropy with git from github
  git clone https://github.com/xastropy/xastropy.git
  cd xastropy
  sudo python setup.py develop #[or install]
  
3. Update astropy

  If you have the version from Anaconda, wipe that:

     conda remove astropy
     git clone https://github.com/profxj/astropy.git   [in ~/local/Python]
     cd astropy
     sudo python setup.py develop

     You may need to do this before executing setup:
        sudo git clean -fxd

4.  Update/install specutils

    git clone https://github.com/astropy/specutils.git
    cd specutils
    sudo python setup.py develop

5.  Update/install linetools

    git clone https://github.com/linetools/linetools.git
    cd linetools
    sudo python setup.py develop

6.  Other packages that not necessary to run most things but recommended
    # 
    conda install PIL
    sudo pip install astroquery
    #
    # pymc and gfort (for f(N) analysis)
    https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries#MacOS
