# Installation

## Conda (Recommended)

Drizzlepac is installed when you install the stenv conda environment (a replacement for astroconda). Select your desired release and follow the instructions on the [stenv installation page](https://stenv.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html).

## From Source

### Clone this repository `bash $ git clone https://github.com/spacetelescope/drizzlepac $ cd drizzlepac `

### Build the documentation

Note: If you intend to use drizzlepac’s embedded help feature from within an interactive python or ipython session, we recommend you do not skip this step.

`bash $ python setup.py build_sphinx `

### Install drizzlepac

`bash $ python setup.py install `

##### SUPPORT for PIP Installation: Installation tools are evolving to rely on commands such as pip to build and install software. This package can now be installed using the following command:

`bash $ pip install . ` The option –no-use-pep517 MAY be required in order to correctly build the C extensions with pip versions up to 22.2, after commenting out the build-backend from the pyproject.toml config file.

Support for installing using `pip` is still evolving, so use of this command is provided on an experimental basis for now.
