Beginning with version 0.9.0, JWST requires Python 3.5 and above.
To install the latest released version of the library, we recommend using conda and the astroconda channel to install the software and using a conda environment for the installation:
conda create -n jwst --override-channels -c http://ssb.stsci.edu/astroconda-dev -c defaults jwst
source activate jwst
This will install the latest released version of the package, and within the
jwst environment, the pipeline can be run from the command line or imported
into python programs. In order to install a specific version, the exact
version can be supplied, e.g. jwst=0.9.0.
To install the development version of the repository, we recommend creating a new environment, using the astroconda channel to install the dependencies, and then installing from the github repository:
conda create -n jwst_devel --only-deps --override-channels -c http://ssb.stsci.edu/astroconda-dev -c defaults jwst
source activate jwst_devel
git clone https://github.com/STScI-JWST/jwst.git
cd jwst
python setup.py develop
If you will not need to update the code, then you can replace the last step with the following command:
python setup.py install
Once installed, the software can be updated to the lastest development version
by running the following command inside the jwst directory:
git pull origin master
