Install Limnoria
----------------
In the next section of this guide we will use `pip`_, which is a generic
way of installing Python software
However, you can use any of these alternatives:
* Download a .deb package at `ProgVal's build repo`_.
* Use `git`_ to clone the `Limnoria repository`_ and run
``python setup.py install`` or ``python setup.py install --user``.
* Click the "Downloads" button at the `Limnoria repository`_. Then,
extract the zipball to some temporary directory, and ``cd`` into the
``supybot`` directory which contains the extracted code.

To upgrade Limnoria, simply add ``--upgrade`` to the end of both commands.
With git
--------
We are now ready to install supybot itself. Most distributions have a supybot
package in the repositories. This is probably the easiest way to install. If
that is what you want to do, that's fine, and you're ready to move on to the
next section. :)
However, Limnoria tends to be actively developed, and it's best to grab the
latest codebase. Easiest way to do that is to clone the repository with
running::
git clone git://github.com/ProgVal/Limnoria.git
Additionaly, if you want to use the 'testing' version (it is more up to date,
but not yet totally tested), you can run this command::
git checkout testing
You can also:
* Download a .deb package at `ProgVal's build repo`_.
* Click the "Downloads" button at the `Limnoria repository`_. Then,
extract the tarball/zipball to some temporary directory, and ``cd`` into the
``supybot`` directory which contains the extracted code.

If you have root access
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Run, as root::
python setup.py install
If all goes according to plan, the supybot python module will be installed to
somewhere like ``/usr/lib/python2.x/site-packages``, and a few supybot scripts
will be installed to somewhere like ``/usr/bin`` or ``/usr/local/bin``.
If you don't have root access, or want a local install
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You can install Supybot in a local directory by using the ``--prefix`` option
when running ``setup.py``. E.g.::
python setup.py install --user
to install into a ``.local`` directory inside your home directory. You'll now
have a ``$HOME/.local/bin`` directory containing Supybot programs ('supybot',
``supybot-wizard``, etc.) and a ''$HOME/.local/lib'' directory containing the
Supybot libraries.
