polylx 0.5.4

A Python package to visualize and analyze microstructures.

PolyLX - python package to visualize and analyze digitized 2D microstructures

Installation

PyPI

To install PolyLX, just execute

pip install polylx

Upgrading via pip

To upgrade an existing version of PolyLX from PyPI, execute

pip install polylx --upgrade --no-deps

Please note that the dependencies (Matplotlib, NumPy, Pandas, NetworkX, seaborn, shapely, pyshp and SciPy) will also be upgraded if you omit the --no-deps flag; use the --no-deps ("no dependencies") flag if you don't want this.

Installing PolyLX with conda or mamba

Another common way to install is create environment using conda or mamba. Download latest version of polylx and unzip to folder of your choice. Use conda or mamba to create an environment from an environment.yml file. Open the terminal, change directory where you unzip the source and execute following command:

conda env create -f environment.yml

Activate the new environment and install from current directory::

conda activate polylx
pip install polylx
