Installation

Installation#

You can install this package using either pipx or pip. Installing via pipx offers advantages if you want to just use the adtl tool standalone from the command line, as it isolates the Python package dependencies in a virtual environment. On the other hand, pip installs packages to the global environment which is generally not recommended as it can interfere with other packages on your system.

  • Installation via pipx (recommended):

    pipx install adtl
    
  • Installation via pip:

    python3 -m pip install adtl
    

If you are writing code which depends on adtl (instead of using the command-line program), then it is best to add a dependency on git+https://github.com/globaldothealth/adtl to your Python build tool of choice.
