GRIP Core Python Package

Installation

These instructions are specific for an install on FreeBSD

First of all, you need to install PostgreSQL, librrdkafka and cmake:

pkg install databases/postgresql15-server
pkg install net/librdkafka
pkg install devel/cmake
pkg install lang/gcc
pkg install math/openblas

cmake is needed for installing py-ninja, which is a dependency of scipy to install later. GCC is installed because the fortran compiler is needed for the meson build system.

Then create a virtualenv:

python3 -m venv ./venv

Activate it:

source ./venv/bin/activate

Install the base libraries. Defining the include and library paths for confluent-kafka is mandatory, as the pip install looks for librdkafka in the wrong place.

setenv C_INCLUDE_PATH /usr/local/include/
setenv LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib/
pip3 install confluent-kafka

Then the rest

pip3 install scipy
pip3 install -r requirements.pip3.txt
python3 setup.py install
