You’ve got three easy options to install configglue:
- Install a version of configglue provided by your operating system distribution. This is the quickest option for those who have operating systems that distribute configglue.
- Install an official release. This is the best approach for users who want a stable version number and aren’t concerned about running a slightly older version of configglue.
- Install the latest development version. This is best for users who want the latest-and-greatest features and aren’t afraid of running brand-new code.
Always refer to the documentation that corresponds to the version of configglue you’re using!
If you do either of the first two steps, keep an eye out for parts of the documentation marked new in development version. That phrase flags features that are only available in development versions of configglue, and they likely won’t work with an official release.
To verify that configglue can be seen by Python, type python from your shell. Then at the Python prompt, try to import configglue:
>>> import configglue
>>> print configglue.__version__
1.0
That’s it – you can now move onto the quickstart guide.
