Installation is as simple as

python setup.py install

If you are running several virtual environments, where one (e.g. devel) is used for development, you can install a development version by running

workon devel
python setup.py develop

Docs are located in the doc directory. To install, cd to doc and run

make html

Documentation output is found in build.

The modules are shipped with a number of unit tests, located in the tests directory. To run a test, issue the command

python setup.py nosetests

or if you want to run individual tests, cd to tests and run (for example)

nosetests -v -s test_db.py
