Requirements

qiBuild is a set of command line tools written in Python. Only Python 2.7 is supported.

Note that most linux distributions now comes with Python3 by default now, so you may need to install python 2 first.

Installation

Install qibuild with pip

pip install qibuild

It is recommended to install qibuild with pip install qibuild --user in order to keep your system clean.

If you do so, make sure that $HOME/.local/bin is in your $PATH

On windows, to use scripts written in Python, you have to put C:\Python2x and c:\Python2x\Scripts in your PATH.
