1. Setup a virtual environment

We recommend that you install nidl in a virtual Python environment, either managed with the standard library venv or with conda. Either way, create and activate a new python environment.

With venv:

python3 -m venv /<path_to_new_env>
source /<path_to_new_env>/bin/activate

Windows users should change the last line to \<path_to_new_env>\Scripts\activate.bat in order to activate their virtual environment.

With conda:

conda create -n nidl python=3.12
conda activate nidl

2. Install nidl with pip

Execute the following command in the command prompt / terminal in the proper python environment:

python3 -m pip install -U nidl

Check installation

Try importing nidl in a python / iPython session:

import nidl

If no error is raised, you have installed nidl correctly.
