Downloading Lamson

You can get the Lamson source in various ways, read the releases documentation to find out how.

Installing With Easy Install

Using easy_install is the easiest way to install, simply run “sudo easy_install lamson” and it will do the work of getting the dependencies and setting everything up.

Installing With setup.py

Once you get the source, you can also use setup.py to install Lamson. First make sure that you have SQLAlchemy, Mako, and nose installed:

$ sudo easy_install sqlalchemy
$ sudo easy_install mako
$ sudo easy_install nose

If you refuse to use easy_install entirely then it is on you to find these projects and install them how you see best. *Make sure you have the most recent version of all dependencies.*

Then you can use this command to install:

$ python setup.py install
