Now that you have the code, how do you run it on your machine?
Running in Python
The app requires python 3.6 or higher. Check what version python you have on your machine using your command prompt tool.
FYI, Macs come with python 2.7 installed. If you run python --version you may get 2.7 even if you have newer versions installed. Here's how to manage python on your Mac.
Create your python environment
Let's fast track you. In order to avoid installing every package used by the app, you can use pipenv.
First, pipenv.
's a guide to walking through that process.
Running in Docker
We have also "containerized" the app, which means the app can run with a tool called Docker without you needing to install anything (other than docker) on your machine.
The benefit of using Docker is keeping your python environment clean. Python is a on your local machine and most python-based applications require python packages. Docker installs these packages in the container and then builds and runs the container on your machine.
For guidance on running the app on your own machine please see .
This is an Open Source project, which allows you to access all the code that is used to build the app and perform the analysis.
Git
We keep the code for this app in a Github repository. This allows folks to contribute, track work, and backtrack changes (if need be) without having to maintain everything ourselves. The repository is publically accessible so you don't need any permissions to access or download it.
