Hi,

Seems like a simple question but have not found a good answer. Best way to use outside python libraries in SAGE in Ubuntu. Install in SAGE foulder if so (how?). Link in an IDE. I know how to do this in Pydev.

Thanks,

Matthew

try this at the terminal

$sage -sh
$easy_install 'python-module'

Edit: The command easy_install will download the module from internet and install it.

For eg. If you type easy_install asciitables you get the following output. Notice it goes to the websites http://pypi.python.org/simple/asciita... and http://cxc.harvard.edu/contrib/asciit... finds the latest version and installs it.

ah my easy install is not going to the internet for some reason on asciitables but it does for simpy (I have no idea why). So that explains why it was not working for me. Thanks Matthew

Also maybe this should be put in a wiki somewhere as I found this important but hard to track down.

I don't use asciitables so tried it out a few days ago just for the purpose of this question and it worked for me. Maybe the servers were busy when you tried.

Could not get it to work. Maybe its me.

sage -sh (OK) easy_install 'python-module' (does not work)

I don't think I know exactly what to put or it just not the way to install. Say I have a module like asciiread located in home/la/asciitable/. In that file are folders and setup.py used to install. Is that were I should start e.g. "easy_install 'home/la/asciitable/setup.py'?

OR

is easy install in this case a way to link with my already install package.

so I put something like easy_install '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-package/asciitables.py

Processing asciitables.py error: Couldn't find a setup script in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/atpy/asciitables.py

Hope this is clear.

Thanks

I already have asciiread install in my python

If you want to install the version you downloaded, you can go to the directory that has setup.py and do something like `sage setup.py install`
