************ Installation ************ .. highlight:: console Platform Specific Notes ======================= Windows ------- PGPy has not been formally tested on Windows. I see no reason why it wouldn't work, but your mileage may vary. If you try it out and run into any issues, please submit bug reports on the `issue tracker `_! Linux ----- Debian ^^^^^^ PGPy is now in `Debian Testing `_, and can be installed simply:: $ sudo apt install python3-pgpy Arch Linux ^^^^^^^^^^ PGPy is available on the `AUR `_ Gentoo ^^^^^^ There are gentoo ebuilds available in the `gentoo branch `_ RedHat/CentOS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Coming Soon! Other Linux ^^^^^^^^^^^ Building PGPy on Linux requires a C compiler, headers for Python, headers for OpenSSL, and libffi, to support building Cryptography. For Debian/Ubuntu, these requirements can be installed like so:: $ sudo apt install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python-dev For Alpine linux, the build requirements can be installed like so:: $ apk add build-base libressl-dev libffi-dev python-dev You may need to install ``python3-dev`` if you are using PGPy on Python 3. For Fedora/RHEL derivatives, the build requirements can be installed like so:: $ sudo yum install gcc libffi-devel python-devel openssl-devel Mac OS X -------- If you are on Mac OS, you may experience more limited functionality without installing a more capable version of OpenSSL. You may refer to Cryptography's documentation on `Building cryptography on macOS `_ for information on how to do so. Installation ============ Once you have the prerequisites specified above, PGPy can be installed from PyPI using pip, like so:: $ pip install PGPy
