Installation
Prerequisites
STRUDEL Kit requires Python to run the CLI and Node.js with NPM to run the web applications you build. If you don't already have these tools on your system, use the links below to install them:
Install strudel-cli with pip
The strudel-cli can be installed from PyPi via the pip package installer for Python.
It is recommended that before you install strudel-cli, you use either conda or pipx to install it inside of an isolated virtual environment. See below how to install strudel-cli using either of these options.
Install strudel-cli inside a conda environment
Run the following commands on the command line:
conda create -y -n strudel-cli-env -c python pip
conda activate strudel-cli-env
pip install strudel-cli
After executing the above commands, the strudel command can be used on any command line where you activate strudel-cli-env.
Install strudel-cli using pipx
pipx is an extension of pip that will install command-line tools in isolated environments so you can safely run them from any terminal. Install pipx by following the instructions in their documentation.
Once you have pipx installed, run the following command on the command line:
pipx install strudel-cli
After completing the above, the strudel command can be used on any command line for the current user.
Install strudel-cli from GitHub
If you want the freshly baked code right from the main repository instead, use the following recipe:
# note: use only if you want 'freshly baked' code from GitHub main branch
git clone https://github.com/strudel-science/strudel-kit
pip install strudel-kit/strudel-cli
