2.1. Installing EDAAC

To use EDAAC, you will need to download MongoDB and ensure it is running in an accessible location. You will also need MongoEngine to use EDAAC, but if you install EDAAC using setuptools, then the dependencies will be handled for you.

EDAAC is available on PyPI, so you can use pip:

$ pip install edaac

Alternatively, if you don’t have setuptools installed, download it from PyPi and run

$ python setup.py install

To use the bleeding-edge version of EDAAC, you can get the source from GitHub and install it as above:

$ git clone git://github.com/EDAAC/EDAAC
$ cd EDAAC
$ python setup.py install
