Notes

On macOS and Linux, you may need to add the following line to your .profile or .bashrc file:

export $PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin

On Windows you should check the box during the Python installer to include Scripts directory in your $PATH. This can be done manually after installation too.

Windows users may manually attempt to install search enhancing library python-Levenshtein via running:

pip3 install python-Levenshtein

or

pip3 install -r config/requirements-optional.txt

Install PyPi release (from pip)

pip3 install nutra

(Note: use pip3 on Linux/macOS)

Update to latest

pip3 install -U nutra

Subscribe to the development release

pip3 install --pre -U nutra

Using the source-code directly

git clone [e-mail]:nutratech/cli.git
cd cli
git submodule update --init

pip3 install -r requirements.txt
./nutra init

or install from source,

git clone [e-mail]:nutratech/cli.git
cd cli
git submodule update --init

make install  # python3 setup.py --quiet install
nutra init

If installed or inside cli folder, can also run with python3 -m ntclient

When building the PyPi release use the commands:

make build  # python3 setup.py --quiet sdist
twine upload dist/nutra-X.X.X.tar.gz

Running tests

You will need the test dependencies. (Similarly, you will need the lint dependencies to run make lint)

For recent versions of Linux, macOS, and Windows:

pip3 install -r config/requirements-test.txt

For Windows XP (Python 3.4) use:

pip3 install -r config/requirements-win_xp-test.txt

To run the tests, run this in the cloned folder:

make test  # python3 test.py

Argcomplete (tab completion on Linux/macOS)

After installing nutra, argcomplete package should also be installed,

Simply run the following out of a bash terminal:

activate-global-python-argcomplete

Then you can press tab to fill in or complete subcommands and to list argument flags.
