}Installation for Users
ctapipe and its dependencies may be installed using the Anaconda or Miniconda package system. We recommend creating a conda virtual environment first, to isolate the installed version and dependencies from your master environment (this is optional).
The latest version of ctapipe can be installed via:
mamba install -c conda-forge ctapipe
or via:
pip install ctapipe
Note: to install a specific version of ctapipe take look at the documentation here.
Note: mamba is a C++ reimplementation of conda and can be found here.
Note this is pre-alpha software and is not yet stable enough for end-users (expect large API changes until the first stable 1.0 release).
Developers should follow the development install instructions found in the documentation.
