.. _prerequisites:
Prerequisites
=============
All you need is a working version of Python-2.3 or later on your computer.
If you are running Max OS X or some Linux distribution (e.g. Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora)
you most likely already have python on you system, for a detailed instruction
on how to install python follow the instruction on the
`python wiki <http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/Download>`_.
.. _stableversions:
Download Stable Versions
========================
Using `pip` or `easy_install`
-----------------------------
Using pip::
$ pip install CherryPy
or with easy_install::
$ easy_install CherryPy
It is recommended to use `pip` instead of `easy_install`.
If you want to download and install CherryPy for yourself proceed to the
next instructions depending on your platform.
Unix/Mac
--------
You may download the most current version from `PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/CherryPy/3.2.3>`_
For other releases, browse our
`download index <http://download.cherrypy.org/cherrypy>`_.
* Unzip/untar the files
* Enter the directory created by the file extraction.
* Type "python setup.py install" to install the CherryPy module
Windows
-------
You may download the most current version from `PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/CherryPy/3.2.3>`_.
For other releases, browse our `download index <http://download.cherrypy.org/cherrypy>`_.
* Select the file ending in ".exe".
* Run the downloaded file.
Next Steps
==========
To run your first sample website:
1. In a command terminal or console go to cherrypy/tutorial/
2. Type::
$ python tut01_helloworld.py
and you'll have a running website on port 8080.
3. Open your favorite browser and point it to http://localhost:8080 to see your first CherryPy-served page :-)
Now, you should try running some of the other tutorials found in the tutorial
directory and look at their source code to understand how to develop a website
with CherryPy.
.. _developmentversions:
Development versions
====================
CherryPy's source code is managed using `Mercurial <http://mercurial.selenic.com/>`_,
a source code control system written in python.
You can access our Mercurial repository using your favorite
Mercurial client at `bitbucket <https://bitbucket.org/cherrypy/cherrypy>`_.
For Windows users, we recommend the wonderful Mercurial
client `TortoiseHg <http://tortoisehg.org/>`_. Users of
other operating systems are advised to use multi-platform
command line tools provided by the
`core Mercurial distribution <http://mercurial.selenic.com/downloads/>`_.
* To submit a patch: fork the repository and submit your pull request.
For further information please contact us via email or IRC
(see `getting involved <http://bitbucket.org/cherrypy/cherrypy/wiki/CherryPyInvolved>`_).
Standalone WSGI server
----------------------
The WSGI server that comes bundled with CherryPy is available as a standalone
module. Feel free to use it for all of your WSGI serving needs.
