$ python setup.py docs

Requirements

Some cryptographic functionalities use curve secp256k1 and require installing libsecp256k1.

$ apt-get install -y libsecp256k1-dev

Installation

Using pip and PyPI:

$ pip install aleph-client

Installation for development

If you want NULS2 support you will need to install nuls2-python (currently only available on github):

$ pip install git+https://github.com/aleph-im/nuls2-python.git

To install from source and still be able to modify the source code:

$ pip install -e . or $ python setup.py develop
