# Common
First things first: Supybot *requires* at least Python 2.6. There
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
isn't any way to get around it. You can get it from [Python homepage].

The following libraries are not needed for running Limnoria, but enable
extra features you may want. (Order by decreasing estimated usefulness)
[charade] -- enables better encoding handling
[pytz] and [python-dateutil] -- enable additional features of the `Time` plugin
[python-gnupg] -- enables user authentication with GPG

To install them, run
`pip install -r requirements.txt`
2014-05-22 13:46:09 +02:00
or if you don't have or don't want to use root,
`pip install -r requirements.txt --install-option=--prefix=$HOME/.local`

So what do you do? That depends on which operating system you're
running. We've split this document up to address the different
methods, so find the section for your operating system and continue
from there.

2014-05-22 13:46:09 +02:00
If you're installing Python using your distributor's packages, you may
need a python-dev or python3-dev package installed, too. If you don't have
a '/usr/lib/python2.x/distutils' directory or
'/usr/lib/python2.x/config/Makefile' or with Python 3
'/usr/lib/python3.x/distutils' or '/usr/lib/python3.x/config/Makefile' (assuming '/usr/lib/python2.x' or '/usr/lib/python3.x' is where your Python
libs are installed), then you will need a python-dev or python3-dev package.

## git
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
First start by git cloning Limnoria and moving to the cloned repository.
```
git clone git://github.com/ProgVal/Limnoria.git
cd Limnoria
```
The rest depends on do you have root access and do you want to perform global or local install.
2014-05-22 13:46:09 +02:00
### Global install
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
Run
```
python setup.py install
```
`python` can be replaced with `python2` (if your distribution
uses Python 3 by default) or `python3` if you want to use Python 3
version.
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
Now you have several new programs installed where Python scripts are normally
installed on your system ('/usr/bin' or '/usr/local/bin' are common on
UNIX systems). The two that might be of particular interest to you, the
new user, are 'supybot' and 'supybot-wizard'. The former, 'supybot', is
the script to run an actual bot; the latter, 'supybot-wizard', is an
in-depth wizard that provides a nice user interface for creating a
registry file for your bot.
2014-05-22 13:46:09 +02:00
### Local install
2005-01-19 14:14:38 +01:00
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
Run
2005-01-19 14:14:38 +01:00
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
```
python setup.py install --user
```
`python` can be replaced with `python2` (if your distribution
uses Python 3 by default) or `python3` if you want to use Python 3
version.
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
and you will have new programs installed in ~/.local/bin. The two that might be of particular interest to you, the
new user, are 'supybot' and 'supybot-wizard'. The former, 'supybot', is
the script to run an actual bot; the latter, 'supybot-wizard', is an
in-depth wizard that provides a nice user interface for creating a
registry file for your bot.
By default you must run the bot with full path to the binary unless you specify $PATH.
Run the following command to fix your PATH. We presume that you use bash
and if you don't, you most probably know how to do this with other shell.
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
```
2014-05-01 11:17:28 +02:00
echo 'PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
```
2014-05-22 13:46:09 +02:00
## Debian
For Debian and other distributions based on it (Ubuntu etc.), there are
packages. You can install them with
```
wget http://builds.progval.net/limnoria/limnoria-master-HEAD.deb
sudo dpkg -i limnoria-master-HEAD.deb
```
## Pip
To install with pip run
```
sudo pip install limnoria
```
If you wish to use Python 3 or 2 instead of default of your distribution
run `pipX` where X is either 2 or 3 instead of `pip`.
### Upgrading
#### git
To upgrade, return to the cloned Limnoria repository and run:
```
git pull
```
and then install Limnoria normally. "python setup.py install" doesn't affect config files of the bot any way.
If you don't have the cloned Limnoria repository, clone it again using the installation instructions.
2014-05-22 13:46:09 +02:00
### Debian
Simply do the same as before:
```
wget http://builds.progval.net/limnoria/limnoria-master-HEAD.deb
sudo dpkg -i limnoria-master-HEAD.deb
```
### Pip
To update with pip, add `--upgrade` to the end of the command:
```
pip install limnoria --upgrade
```
## Upgrading to Python 3
Upgrading Python3 happens the same way, but if you want to move from 2 to 3
or 3 to 2, you must remove the build/ directory and the executable
supybot* files first. The build/ directory is on same directory as this
file and supybot* are usually in /usr/local/bin or ~/.local/bin
```
rm -rf build/
rm /usr/local/bin/supybot*
rm ~/.local/bin/supybot*
```
2014-05-22 13:46:09 +02:00
## Windows
**Note**: If you are using an IPV6 connection, you will not be able
to run Supybot under Windows (unless Python has fixed things). Current
2005-01-19 14:14:38 +01:00
versions of Python for Windows are *not* built with IPV6 support. This
isn't expected to be fixed until Python 2.4, at the earliest.
Now that you have Python installed, open up a command prompt. The
2005-01-19 14:14:38 +01:00
easiest way to do this is to open the run dialog (Programs -> run) and
type "cmd" (for Windows 2000/XP/2003) or "command" (for Windows 9x). In
order to reduce the amount of typing you need to do, I suggest adding
Python's directory to your path. If you installed Python using the
default settings, you would then do the following in the command prompt
(otherwise change the path to match your settings)::
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
```
set PATH=C:\Python2x\;%PATH%
```
You should now be able to type 'python' to start the Python
interpreter. Exit by pressing CTRL-Z and then Return. Now that that's
setup, you'll want to cd into the directory that was created when you
unzipped Supybot; I'll assume you unzipped it to 'C:\Supybot' for these
2012-05-10 10:26:39 +02:00
instructions. From 'C:\Supybot', run
```
python setup.py install
```
This will install Supybot under 'C:\Python2x\'. You will now have several new
programs installed in 'C:\Python2x\Scripts\'. The two that might be of
particular interest to you, the new user, are 'supybot' and 'supybot-wizard'.
The former, 'supybot', is the script to run an actual bot; the latter,
'supybot-wizard', is an in-depth wizard that provides a nice user interface for
creating a registry file for your bot.
