Installation¶
Prerequisites: CloudBridge runs on Python 2.7 and higher. Python 3 is recommended.
We highly recommend installing CloudBridge in a virtualenv. Creating a new virtualenv is simple:
pip install virtualenv
virtualenv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
Latest release¶
The latest release of cloudbridge can be installed from PyPI:
pip install cloudbridge
Latest unreleased dev version¶
The development version of the library can be installed from the Github repo:
$ git clone https://github.com/gvlproject/cloudbridge.git
$ cd cloudbridge
$ python setup.py install
Developer installation¶
To install additional libraries required by CloudBridge contributors, such as tox, clone the source code repository and run the following command from the repository root directory:
pip install -e .[dev]
To check what version of the library you have installed, do the following:
import cloudbridge
cloudbridge.get_version()
