Installing The Client
The Binubuo client is a python library, so it can be installed using PIP command:
python -m pip install binubuo
The client works with most python versions, but has been tested and validated on version 2.7+ for version 2 of python and 3.5+ for version 3.
The module has 3 base modules that work without installing anything further:
- Core Binubuo
- Binubuo Template
- Binubuo CSV
To validate that the install is working start python and import the individual modules:
>>> from binubuo import binubuo
>>> from binubuo import binubuoTemplate
>>> from binubuo import binubuoCSV
All three import commands should succeed without any errors.
If you wish to make use of the Excel functionality in the binubuoExcel module you need to install the openpyxl module
To use the database support of Binubuo it is required that you install a supported client library for the database you wish to connect to.
Once you have installed the Binubuo client and the extra connection libraries you need, read the Getting Started guide to see how to use it.
