📦 Installation

We are using python packaging system for greater convenience. Let's install Forest Guard CLI on you PC.

Dependencies​

First you must have Python 3 installed on your operating system. If you don't, download it. Also make sure you have pip ready to use (python package manager).

To check that everything works, run:

python --version
pip --version

Python package​

That command will install the package globally on your computer:

pip install fguard

Forest Guard now is ready to use!

tip

You can also use local python virtual environment.

  • Select a folder where you want to work (let be the place where folder stored path-to-folder)
  • Go to that directory. You can use this command:
cd "<path/to/folder>"
  • Run:
python -m venv venv

It will create environment in path-to-folder/venv

  • Now activate it (also you need to do it everytime you are using the app):
venv\Scripts\activate
  • Now install fguard as we did before (now it will install package locally).

When you finish your work, you need to deactivate environment:

deactivate
