Installation

These installation instructions assume you already have Python installed. If you do not already have a copy of Python, we recommend you install Anaconda Python.

pip install qtutils

Upgrading qtutils with PyPI

To upgrade to the latest version of qtutils, run:

To upgrade to a specific version of qtutils (or, alternatively, if you wish to downgrade), run:

pip install -U qtutils==<version>

where <version> is replaced by the version you wish (for example pip install -U qtutils==2.3.2).

Anaconda

To install qtutils using conda run:

conda install -c labscript-suite qtutils

Note

The qtutils library is published on the labscript-suite anaconda cloud channel as it was created by labscript-suite developers for use in that software suite.

Upgrading qtutils with conda

conda update -c labscript-suite qtutils

To upgrade to a specific version of qtutils (or, alternatively, if you wish to downgrade), run:

where <version> is replaced by the version you wish (for example conda update -c labscript-suite qtutils=3.0.0).
