Installation¶
This package installs just like any other Python package. It is a pure Python package and works with Python 3.x installations. To install the latest version using pip, you execute the following:
pip install saspy
or, for a specific release:
pip install http://github.com/sassoftware/saspy/releases/saspy-X.X.X.tar.gz
or, for a given branch (put the name of the branch after @):
pip install git+https://git@github.com/sassoftware/saspy.git@branchname
The best way to update and existing deployment to the latest SASPy version is to simply uninstall and then install, picking up the latest production version from PyPI:
pip uninstall -y saspy
pip install saspy
Also, if you prefer conda install, you can use that from the conda-forge channel:
To use this module after installation, you need to copy the example sascfg.py file to a sascfg_personal.py and edit sascfg_personal.py per the instructions in the next section.
