FISS

If you haven't already installed Python with miniforge(Mamba), we recommend (re-)installing Python with miniforge. The miniforge will install conda and automatically configure the default channel to be conda-forge, and it is more stable and faster than the original conda.

Please follow the instrucutions under the tab that maches your OS to complete the installtion.

Download the miniforge installation script file. // x86-64 // aarch64 // ppc64le
Run the downloaded script with bash.

$ bash Miniforge3-Linux-x86_64.sh

Please install the miniforge in the default path. Download this and copy it to the home directroy.

$ cp ~/Downloads/initmamba ~/.initmamba

Open the ~/.bashrc and add the alias to source the .initmamba like below:

alias runmamba="source $HOME/.initmamba"

If you have conda initialization in the .bashrc copy the initialization to ~/.initconda and comment out those lines. Then add the alias runconda like above. Save the .bashrc and open a new terminal. Run the miniforge using the new command.

$ runmamba

Then, you can use the conda and mamba commands.

Download the miniforge installation script file. // arm64 (Apple Silicon) // x86-64
Run the downloaded script with zsh.

$ zsh Miniforge3-MacOSX-arm_64.sh

Please install the miniforge in the default path. Download this and copy it to the home directroy.

$ cp ~/Downloads/initmamba ~/.initmamba

Open the ~/.zshrc and add the alias to source the .initmamba like below:

alias runmamba="source $HOME/.initmamba"

If you have conda initialization in the .bashrc copy the initialization to ~/.initconda and comment out those lines. Then add the alias runconda like above. Save the .zshrc and open a new terminal. Run the miniforge using the above new command.

$ runmamba

Then, you can use the conda and mamba commands.

Download the miniforge installation executable file. // x86-64
Run the miniforge executable file downloaded from the link above and install the miniforge.
After installation, "miniforge Prompt" is shown up in your start menu.
Now, run this miniforge prompt to set up the virtual environment, and install the fisspy package on that environment.

To avoid the conflict, we recommend using a new virtual environment to install FISSpy. First, launch a terminal (under a UNIX-like system) or the miniforge Prompt (under Windows). Then create and activate a new virtual environment:

$ conda create -n yourenvname python=3.12
$ conda config --add channels conda-forge
$ conda config --set channel_priority strict
$ conda activate yourenvname

You can freely change 'yourenvname' to a different environment name. Here you can replace the 'python=3.12' with any other python version>3.6.
If you want to escape from the activated environment, run 'conda deactivate' on your terminal.

Now we are ready to install fisspy. To install the latest version of the fisspy following the below on your terminal or prompt:

$ conda install fisspy

Here 'conda' can be replaced with 'mamba'.
This will install FISSpy and all required packages. You can also specify the version of the FISSpy like below:

$ conda install fisspy=1.2.1

You can also install other packages you need, such as 'spyder' using same method".

If you fail to download the FISSpy using the above options, you can download the package using the PyPI server, but we do not recommend this method because of the code dependency.

> pip install fisspy

To update the package, you first check the available version of the FISSpy by running:

> mamba search fisspy

Then, update or install a specific version of the FISSpy

> mamba update fisspy

> mamba install fisspy=x.x.x
