Non-dockerized installation

Installation using the separate Python packages

Running the server or node non-dockerized can be useful for development. The applications are made available as separate Python packages on PyPI and can be installed through pip.

Depending on your local setup you might need to substitute pip with pip3.

Server

The server can be installed through Python's pip command:

pip install vantage6-server

After installation, the command vserver-local should be available from the command prompt. This can be verified by running the following command:

vserver-local --help

Configuring and running the server is explained in the section Running the server (dockerized). Just make sure to substitute the command vserver with vserver-local!

Node

The node can be installed through Python's pip command:

pip install vantage6-node

After installation, the command vnode should be available from the command prompt. This can be verified by running the following command:

vnode-local --help

Configuring and running nodes is explained in the section Running the Node (dockerized). Just make sure to substitute the command vnode with vnode-local!
