Using easy_install
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to install psutil from sources is using easy_install.
|
|
Get the latest easy_install version from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
|
|
and just run:
|
|
|
|
easy_install psutil
|
|
|
|
This should get the most updated psutil version from the Python pypi repository,
|
|
unpack it, compile it and install it automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
|
===================================
|
|
Installing on Windows using mingw32
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
After the mingw [1] environment is properly set up on your system you can
|
|
compile Windows sources by entering:
|
|
|
|
setup.py build -c mingw32
|
|
|
|
To compile and install just append the "install" keyword at the end of the
|
|
command line above, like this:
|
|
|
|
setup.py build -c mingw32 install
|
|
|
|
It might be possible that distutils will complain about missing gcc executable.
|
|
That means you have to add mingw bin PATH variable first.
|
|
Entering this line in the command prompt should do the work:
|
|
|
|
SET PATH=C:\MinGW\bin;%PATH%
|
|
|
|
NOTE: this assumes MinGW is installed in C:\MinGW, if not simply replace the
|
|
path in the command above with an appropriate location.

=========================================
|
|
Installing on Windows using Visual Studio
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
To use Visual Studio to install psutil, you must have the same version of
|
|
Visual Studio used to compile your installation of Python. For older versions
|
|
of Python that will be Visual Studio 2003. For 2.6 and later it should be
|
|
Visual Studio 2008. If you do not have the requisite version of Visual Studio
|
|
available then it is recommended to use MinGW to compile psutil instead.
|
|
If you do have Visual Studio installed, you can use the basic distutils
|
|
commands:
|
|
|
|
setup.py build
|
|
|
|
...or to install and build:
|
|
|
|
setup.py install
|
|
|
|
distutils should take care of any necessary magic to compile from there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
==================
|
|
Installing on OS X
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
OS X installation from source will require gcc which you can obtain as part of
|
|
the 'XcodeTools' installer from Apple. Then you can run the standard distutils
|
|
commands.
|
|
To build only:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py build
|
|
|
|
To install and build:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
NOTE: due to developer's hardware limitations psutil has only been compiled and
|
|
tested on OS X 10.4.11 so may or may not work on other versions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
=====================
|
|
Installing on FreeBSD
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
The same compiler used to install Python must be present on the system in order
|
|
to build modules using distutils. Assuming it is installed, you can build using
|
|
the standard distutils commands.
|
|
|
|
Build only:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py build
|
|
|
|
Install and build:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
|
|
===================
|
|
Installing on Linux
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
gcc is required and so the python headers. They can easily be installed by using
|
|
the distro package manager. For example, on Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install python-dev
|
|
|
|
Once done, you can install/build psutil with:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py install
|
|
|
