Installation#

Required Dependencies#

The easiest way to install ospgrid is to use the python package index:

pip install ospgrid

For users wishing to develop:

git clone https://github.com/ccaprani/ospgrid.git
cd ospgrid
pip install -e .

For contributions, first fork the repo and clone from your fork. Here is a good guide on this workflow.

It’s best to install OpenSeesPy into its own environment, due to its dependencies, and potential clashes with other packages. So in turn, execute:

conda create --name ospgrid python=3.8

And then install as above.

And as a reminder, if you are using spyder as your IDE, don’t forget to also install the spyder kernels in the new environment:

conda install spyder-kernels=2.1

ospgrid comes with pytest functions to verify the correct functioning of the package. Users can test this using:

python -m pytest

from the root directory of the package.
