You can install :mod:`github2` either via the Python Package Index (PyPI) or from source.
To install using pip:
$ pip install github2
To install using easy_install:
$ easy_install github2
If you have downloaded a source tarball you can install it by doing the following:
$ python setup.py build $ python setup.py install --user # to install for a single user # python setup.py install # to install in Python's site-packages
:mod:`github2` depends on :pypi:`httplib2`, an excellent package by Joe
Gregorio for handling HTTP sessions. :pypi:`simplejson` is also required when
using :mod:`github2` with Python 2.4 or 2.5. If you install via pip or
easy_install the dependencies should be installed automatically for you.
