Development install

This is for those who wish to contribute to the development of FIAT.

• First, clone the FIAT repository on Github into a local directory of choice:

cd ~/{your path}

git clone https://github.com/Deltares/Delft-FIAT.git fiat

• Create a new development environment. Make sure you either have tomli or tomllib (build-in with Python 3.11) in your base enviroment. Go into your cloned FIAT repository folder and create the environment file by running the make_env.py script:

cd ~/{your path}/fiat

python make_env.py dev

• Then, create and activate the new environment in conda:

conda env create -f environment.yml

conda activate fiat_dev

• To install all the required dependencies, run:

pip install -e .

There you go. FIAT is now installed on your local machine for development purposes.
