Installation

To install utopya, first enter the virtual environment of your choice. The utopya package is available on PyPI:

pip install utopya

This will install utopya, the utopya_backend and the utopya CLI, pulling in all requirements. You should now be able to invoke the utopya CLI:

utopya --help

Note: utopya does not specify minimum versions for its requirements; but it is always tested using the latest versions of its dependencies (for Python 3.8 to 3.12). In case you run into problems, consider upgrading the involved packages using pip install --upgrade.

Optional Dependencies

To include all optional dependencies in the installation (e.g. for plotting networks), use the following command:

pip install utopya[opt]

This may require that you install the following packages first:

• graphviz

  • See the PyGraphviz docs for further instructions.
