Environment configuration

The best way to run SPA-QIN is to install conda package environment and create virtual environment for working with SPA-QIN package.

You can follow instructions at Conda Documentation or use installer like Anaconda directly (Anaconda). You can also use Python 3 virtual environments. For Python virtual environments please check the documentation here.

After installation you can create virtual environment (so-called venv). The following tutorial will assume you have installed conda, which is recommended by SPA-QIN package developer team.

First run

First of all, create the virtual environment by running the following command in your terminal emulator:

conda create --name <my-env>

where <my-env> should be replaced by your own venv name.

If you are using multiple versions of Python or you don't have the Python 3.13.x or above installed, you can specify Python version during venv creation:

conda create --name <my-env> python=3.13

After creating the venv, make sure you are using newly created environment:

conda activate <my-env>

where <my-env> is the name of the venv you've just created.

SPA-QIN installation

DEV MODE

Inside your venv install package from spa_qin/dist directory:

pip install spa_qin-0.0.X.tar.gz

WARNING! Remember to check patch version (X number) before installation!!!

Your environment is ready to run spa_qin library.
