Dependencies

Build and runtime

NeuroM requires Python version 2.6 or higher (but not version 3.x). When installed using pip, NeuroM will take care of installing unmet dependencies. However, for best performance, it may be preferable to pre-install the following subset into your system before installing NeuroM. These typically have installation packages available for must common Linux distributions and Mac OSX:

• numpy
• scipy
• matplotlib
• h5py

These remaining dependencies are lightweight and can be left to the automatic installation:

• enum34
• pyyaml

Installing and building

• pip version 8.1.0 or higher.
• virtualenv

Testing and documentation

These dependencies are not needed for installing and running NeuroM, but are useful for those who want to contribute to its development.

• GNU Make
• nose
• coverage
• sphinx
