Installation¶
Genalog is supported across Windows, Mac and Linux on Python 3.6+. However there are additional installation steps for Windows and Mac users.
pip install genalog
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/genalog.git && cd genalog && pip install -e .
Extra Steps for Windows & Mac Users¶
We have a dependency on Weasyprint for image generation, which in turn has non-python dependencies including Pango, cairo and GDK-PixBuf that need to be installed separately.
So far, Pango, cairo and GDK-PixBuf libraries are available in Ubuntu-18.04 and later by default.
If you are running on Windows, MacOS, or other Linux distributions, please see installation instructions from WeasyPrint.
Note
If you encounter the errors like no library called "libcairo-2" was found, this is probably due to the three extra dependencies missing.
