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()
