Developer’s environment

Developing HydroMT requires Python >= 3.6. We prefer developing with the most recent version of Python. We strongly encourage you to develop in a separate conda environment. All Python dependencies required to develop HydroMT can be found in envs/hydromt-dev.yml.

Developer installation guide

First, clone the HydroMT git repo using ssh from github.

$ git clone git@github.com:Deltares/hydromt.git
$ cd hydromt

Note

In the commands below you can exchange conda for mamba, see installation guide for the difference between both.

Then, navigate into the the code folder (where the envs folder and pyproject.toml are located): Make and activate a new hydromt-dev conda environment based on the envs/hydromt-dev.yml file contained in the repository:

$ conda env create -f envs/hydromt-dev.yml
$ conda activate hydromt-dev

Finally, create a developer installation of HydroMT:

$ pip install -e .
