Installation
============
PyJNIus depends on `Cython <http://cython.org/>`_ and the `Java
<http://www.oracle.com/javase>`_ Development Kit (includes the Java Runtime
Environment).
Installation on GNU/Linux distributions
---------------------------------------
You need the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC), the JDK and JRE installed (openjdk
will do), and Cython. Then, just type::
sudo python setup.py install
If you want to compile the extension within the directory for any development,
just type::
make
You can run the tests suite to make sure everything is running right::
make tests
Installation for Android
------------------------
To use pyjnius in an Android app, you must include it in your compiled
Python distribution. This is done automatically if you build a `Kivy
<https://kivy.org/#home>`__ app, but you can also add it to your
requirements explicitly as follows.
If you use `buildozer
<https://buildozer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`__, add pyjnius to your
requirements in buildozer.spec::
requirements = pyjnius
If you use `python-for-android
<http://python-for-android.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`__ directly, add
pyjnius to the requirements argument when creating a dist or apk::
p4a apk --requirements=pyjnius
Installation for Windows
------------------------
Python and pip must be installed and present in the ``PATH`` environment variable.
1. Download and install the JDK containing the JRE:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
2. Edit your system and environment variables (use the appropriate Java bitness
and version in the paths):
Add to your `Environment Variables
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable>`_:
* ``JAVA_HOME``: C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_79\\bin
* ``PATH``: C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_79\\jre\\bin\\server
contains the ``jvm.dll`` necessary for importing and using PyJNIus.
.. note::
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_79\\jre\\bin\\server
Add to System Variables or have it present in your ``PATH``:
* ``PATH``: C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_79\\bin`
3. Download and install the C compiler:
a) Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7:
http://aka.ms/vcpython27
b) MinGWPy for Python 2.7:
https://anaconda.org/carlkl/mingwpy
c) Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools (command-line tools subset of Visual
Studio) for Python 3.5 and 3.6:
https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/
For other versions see Python's `Windows Compilers wiki
<https://wiki.python.org/moin/WindowsCompilers>`_.
4. Update `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing>`_ and setuptools::
python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
5. Install Cython::
python -m pip install --upgrade cython
6. Install Pyjnius::
pip install pyjnius
.. note::
In case of MinGWPy's GCC returning a ``CreateProcess failed: 5`` error
you need to run the command prompt with elevated permissions, so that
the compiler can access the JDK in ``C:\Program Files\Java\jdkx.y.z_b``
or ``C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdkx.y.z_b``.
Installation for macOS
----------------------
Python and pip must be installed and present in the ``PATH`` environment variable.
1. Download and install the JDK containing the JRE:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
2. Edit your system and environment variables (use the appropriate Java bitness
and version in the paths):
Add to your `Environment Variables
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable>`_:
* ``export JAVA_HOME=/usr/libexec/java_home``
3. Install Xcode command-line tools.
4. Update `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing>`_ and setuptools::
python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
5. Install Cython::
python -m pip install --upgrade cython
6. Install Pyjnius::
pip install pyjnius
Installation for Conda
----------------------
Similar to PIP there is a package manager for
`Anaconda <https://www.anaconda.com/what-is-anaconda/>` called Conda.
An unofficial compiled distributions of PyJNIus for Conda supported
platforms you can find at https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pyjnius.
You can install ``pyjnius`` with this command::
conda install -c conda-forge pyjnius
Or if you want a specific package label e.g. ``gcc7``::
conda install -c conda-forge/label/gcc7 pyjnius
