Hi Everyone,
I`m writing a Python plug-in that depends on a certain Python module. For
Linux users It would be easy to install this module because is available
through the repositories (I think Mac OsX has a repositories system too, but
I am not sure) . But for Windows this could be a little more complicated, 1)
They don´t have a repository system and 2) Python is not installed by
default in Windows, hence if they install any Python module this module will
not be available to PyMol.
I think there are at least two options.
1) The easy one (for me): To distribute a "README" file with the
instructions to install the plugin in each platform and to make my plug-in
to check if the module if available, if not ask the user to install it.
2) The easy one (for the user): To distribute this module with my plug-in,
and create some "installer" to perform the installation in a more or less
automatic way.
Which option would be the better? It is option 2 to complicated to
implement?, it is worthwhile? which are the easiest way to install Python
modules on Windows and Mac OsX (and making them available to PyMol)?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Osvaldo.
