Installation

Anaconda

Installing ESPEI from PyPI (by pip install espei) is not supported. Please install ESPEI using Anaconda.

conda install -c pycalphad -c conda-forge --yes espei

Development versions

To make changes to the ESPEI source code, the development version must be installed. If you’ll need to make changes to pycalphad simultaneously, follow the instructions to install the development version of pycalphad first.

To install the latest development version of ESPEI, use Anaconda to download ESPEI and all of the required dependencies, then remove the installed release version of ESPEI and replace it with the latest version from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/phasesresearchlab/espei.git
cd espei
conda install -c pycalphad -c conda-forge espei
conda remove --force espei
pip install --no-deps -e .

Upgrading ESPEI later requires you to run git pull in this directory.
