Why no pip support? about sharpy HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi Norberto

Thank you for the answer. I would be happy to contribute in this way and will look into it.

What you are saying about different builds could then be accomplished with different anaconda environments. You could have a sharpy and a sharpy_dev environment for example. Additionally, there would be some sort of version control for the end user.

Hi David,

That's certainly a very valid point. I take it that we started off with this sharpy_vars.sh approach and never really thought about using pip or conda builds (and to be completely honest, it is not my area of expertise). What we like (or at least what I sometimes do) about the current approach is that we can quickly change between SHARPy builds when developing new features. In my case I have a directory where I have my simulation scripts and then may change between a release version of SHARPy and another when I'm trying out some new stuff.

If you think SHARPy would benefit from pip support please feel free to look into it, I guess that's the real beauty of open source!

Thanks,

Maybe @ArturoMS13 or @fonsocarre also have some insight

Hi David,

It sounds like a feature SHARPy would definitely benefit having! If you have time and look at it we would greatly appreciate it.

Keep us posted. Many thanks!
