Installation Methods
--------------------
* To use with a specific project, simply copy the pyqtgraph subdirectory
anywhere that is importable from your project. PyQtGraph may also be
used as a git subtree by cloning the git-core repository from github.
* To install system-wide from source distribution:
`$ python setup.py install`
* For instalation packages, see the website (pyqtgraph.org)
* On debian-like systems, pyqtgraph requires the following packages:
python-numpy, python-qt4 | python-pyside
For 3D support: python-opengl, python-qt4-gl | python-pyside.qtopengl
Documentation
-------------
There are many examples; run `python -m pyqtgraph.examples` for a menu.
Some (incomplete) documentation exists at this time.
* Easiest place to get documentation is at <http://www.pyqtgraph.org/documentation>
* If you acquired this code as a .tar.gz file from the website, then you can also look in
doc/html.
* If you acquired this code via GitHub, then you can build the documentation using sphinx.
From the documentation directory, run:
`$ make html`
Please feel free to pester Luke or post to the forum if you need a specific
section of documentation to be expanded.
