Downloading Lamson
You can get the Lamson source, read the source releases documentation to find out how.
For people who can’t click the above link, and who still want the source code, Lamson uses the Fossil SCM for managing its source code. To get your very own checkout of Lamson, first go get fossil and then do these commands:
mkdir ~/fossils fossil clone http://support.lamsonproject.org/ ~/fossils/lamson.fossil mkdir -p projects/lamson cd projects/lamson fossil open ~/fossils/lamson.fossil
Installing With Easy Install
Using easy_install is the easiest way to install, simply run “sudo easy_install lamson” and it will do the work of getting the dependencies and setting everything up.
Installing With setup.py
Once you get the source, you can also use setup.py to install Lamson. First make sure that you have Mako, and nose installed:
$ sudo easy_install jinja $ sudo easy_install nose
If you refuse to use easy_install entirely then it is on you to find these projects and install them how you see best. *Make sure you have the most recent version of all dependencies.*
Then you can use this command to install:
$ python setup.py install
