Installation

Requirements

dplPy requires Python 3.10 or newer. Its core scientific dependencies (NumPy, pandas, SciPy, matplotlib, statsmodels, csaps) are installed automatically.

Install from PyPI

pip install dplpy

Then confirm the install:

import dplpy as dpl
print(dpl.__version__)

Optional extras

LiPD import/export is built on pylipd, which most users do not need, so it is an optional extra:

pip install "dplpy[lipd]"

Install with conda / mamba

If you prefer a conda environment, create one with Python 3.10+ and install dplPy into it with pip:

conda create -n dplpy python=3.11
conda activate dplpy
pip install dplpy

Install from source

To work from the latest main (unstable) or to contribute:

git clone https://github.com/OpenDendro/dplPy.git
cd dplPy
pip install -e .

The project develops on main, with tagged pre/releases branched from it and published to PyPI. See the repository for the current version and release notes.
