FreePATHS requires python 3. On Linux and MacOS, it is probably already installed. On Windows, you may choose to install package, which will install everything for you.
Install the package from PyPi repository by entering this command into a terminal or a python console:
If you'd like to work on the code, and run it without installing into your python folders, download the repository:
Change your terminal directory to the directory of the repository (it' where the README file is):
Run FreePATH as:
freepaths
freepaths
freepahts
freepaths
pipx
If during installation, the terminal says something like pipx is not found
that means you need to install pip in your system.
If after installation the program does not run and the error says something like freepaths is not a recognised command
or freepaths is not found
, but the freepaths
package was actually installed, try running everything with python -m
prefix, for example: python -m freepaths
. This error occurs when the system can't find a path to installed packages, so you may need to restart the terminal or change PATH
variable.
If installation fails, you can simply download this repository, start the terminal in its main directory (where the license file is) and run the program as python -m freepaths
. In this case, you'll always need to run the program from this folder and place your input files there.
pipx install freepaths
git clone https://github.com/anufrievroman/freepaths
cd freepaths
python -m freepaths
pipx uninstall freepaths
