Jam.py requires python. If it is not installed you can get the latest version of Python at https://www.python.org/download/
You can use the following versions of Python with Jam.py:
Python 2
Python 3
You can verify that Python is installed by typing python from your shell; you should see something like:
Python 2.7.12 (default, Nov 19 2016, 06:48:10)
[GCC 5.4.0 20160609] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>
If Python 2 and Python 3 are installed try to type python3:
Python 3.5.2 (default, Nov 17 2016, 17:05:23)
[GCC 5.4.0 20160609] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>
This is the recommended way to install Jam.py.
Install pip. The easiest is to use the standalone pip installer. If your
distribution already has pip
installed, you might need to update it if
it’s outdated. (If it’s outdated, you’ll know because installation won’t
work.)
If you’re using Linux, Mac OS X or some other flavor of Unix, enter the command
sudo pip install jam.py
at the shell prompt.
If you’re using Windows, start a command shell with administrator privileges and run the command
pip install jam.py
This will install Jam.py in your Python installation’s site-packages
directory.
$ python setup.py install
This will install Jam.py in your Python installation’s site-packages directory.
Note
on some unix like systems you may need to switch to root or run: sudo python setup.py install
