How to install

Installing with mamba (recommended)

mamba install -c conda-forge geoutils

Tip

Solving dependencies can take a long time with conda, mamba significantly speeds up the process. Install it with:

conda install mamba -n base -c conda-forge

Once installed, the same commands can be run by simply replacing conda by mamba. More details available in the mamba documentation.

Installing with pip

pip install geoutils

Warning

Updating packages with pip (and sometimes mamba) can break your installation. If this happens, re-create an environment from scratch pinning directly all your other dependencies during initial solve (e.g., mamba create -n geoutils-env -c conda-forge geoutils myotherpackage==1.0.0).

Installing for contributors

git clone https://github.com/GlacioHack/geoutils.git
mamba env create -f geoutils/dev-environment.yml

After installing, you can check that everything is working by running the tests: pytest -rA.
