Installing poezio
|
||
=================
|
||
|
||
.. important:: Python 3.3 or better is **required**, as we do not
|
||
officially support python 3.1 or 3.2 (although we do try to keep
|
||
things running), and python 3.2 has some unfixable issues.
|
||
|
||
poezio in the GNU/Linux distributions
|
||
-------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
As far as I know, Poezio is available in the following distributions, you just
|
||
have to install it by using the package manager of the distribution, if you're
|
||
using one of these.
|
||
|
||
- *Archlinux*: A poezio_ and poezio-git_ packages are in AUR (use your favourite
|
||
AUR wrapper to install them)
|
||
- *Gentoo*: `Sekh’s overlay`_ contains everything required to build poezio
|
||
(sleekxmpp, dnspython, and poezio)
|
||
- *Fedora*: The poezio package was out of date for a long time in Fedora, but
|
||
now thanks to Casper, there is an `up-to-date package`_ in the repos since F19.
|
||
- *Debian*: Use an other distro. (or make a package, we can provide help :) )
|
||
|
||
(If another distribution provides a poezio package, please tell us and we will
|
||
add it to the list)
|
||
|
||
Install from source
|
||
-------------------
|
||
|
||
.. note:: The ``make`` command is always required, because while we could provide
|
||
the compiled file into the archive, the ABI changes and platform variety would
|
||
make it sure that the list of archives is either incomplete or wrong.
|
||
|
||
Packagers are of course welcome to compile the file and include it in their
|
||
architecture-specific and fixed-python packages.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Stable version
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
`Stable version`_ packages are available in standalone (included dependencies)
|
||
and poezio-only packages (both with prebuilt html doc for convenience).
|
||
|
||
|
||
Development version
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
The stable versions of poezio are more like snapshots of states of
|
||
development we deem acceptable. There is always an incentive to
|
||
use the development version, like new features, bug fixes, and more
|
||
support. Therefore, you might want to use the git version.
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
git clone git://git.poez.io/poezio
|
||
cd poezio
|
||
|
||
Dependencies
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
"""""""
|
||
General
|
||
"""""""
|
||
|
||
Poezio is a python3-only application, so you will first need that, preferably
|
||
in the latest available version, down to 3.3.
|
||
|
||
.. note:: Python 3.1 is not officially supported and tested, but should
|
||
work (if it doesn’t, we can fix it if the fix does not require ugly
|
||
modifications). In this case, you will want to install the
|
||
python3-argparse package if it exists, or use pip3/virtualenvs to
|
||
install it.
|
||
|
||
You will first need python3-devel, or whatever your distribution named it, along
|
||
with standard utilities such as make. Once you have them, you can run ``make``
|
||
to build the only part of poezio that needs it. If you downloaded the standalone
|
||
stable package, you are finished here and can skip to :ref:`running poezio <poezio-run-label>`.
|
||
|
||
Poezio depends on two libraries:
|
||
|
||
- DNSPython_ (the python3 version, often called dnspython3)
|
||
- SleekXMPP_
|
||
|
||
If you do not want to install those libraries, you can skip directly to
|
||
the :ref:`installation part <poezio-install-label>`
|
||
|
||
|
||
"""""""""
|
||
DNSPython
|
||
"""""""""
|
||
|
||
It should be available right now in most software repositories, under the name
|
||
``python3-dnspython`` or ``python3-dnspython3``. Any stable version should fit.
|
||
|
||
For a manual install:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
wget -O dnspython.tar.gz http://www.dnspython.org/kits3/1.11.1/dnspython3-1.11.1.tar.gz
|
||
tar xvf dnspython.tar.gz
|
||
cd dnspython3-1.11.1
|
||
python3 setup.py build
|
||
python3 setup.py install --user
|
||
|
||
"""""""""
|
||
SleekXMPP
|
||
"""""""""
|
||
|
||
Poezio now depends on SleekXMPP 1.2. if your distribution does not provide it yet,
|
||
you can install it this way:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
wget https://github.com/fritzy/SleekXMPP/archive/1.2.0.tar.gz
|
||
tar xvf 1.2.0.tar.gz
|
||
SleekXMPP-1.2.0
|
||
python3 setup.py build
|
||
python3 setup.py install --user
|
||
|
||
|
||
.. _poezio-install-label:
|
||
|
||
Installation
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
|
||
The update.sh + launch.sh method is the recommended way of using and upgrading
|
||
the devel version of poezio. Installing should only be done with stable versions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
If you skipped the installation of the dependencies and you only want to run
|
||
poezio without a system-wide install, do, in the :file:`poezio` directory:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
./update.sh
|
||
|
||
If you have git installed, it will download and update locally the
|
||
libraries for you. (and if you don’t have git installed, install it)
|
||
|
||
|
||
If you really want to install it, run as root (or sudo in ubuntu or whatever):
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
make install
|
||
|
||
|
||
.. _poezio-run-label:
|
||
|
||
Running
|
||
~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
If you didn’t install poezio, you can run it from the source directory
|
||
with:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
./launch.sh
|
||
|
||
|
||
If you did, it should be in he ``$PATH`` as ``poezio``, so run:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
poezio
