For installing in macosx. Making sure your environment have python3. You can use which python3 to check that.

$ which python3
/usr/local/bin/python3

Then, without root permission, you can install package via virtualenv. (A workstation should provide this command)

$ virtualenv -p $(which python3) env$ . env/bin/activate
(env) $ python -V
Python 3.x.x

And finally, you can install larch via pip.

(env) $ pip3 install larch

Solution 2:

"Larch can be installed from source code. If not using Anaconda, this is necessary for Linux, and can be done for other systems as well.

The latest releases of the source code will be available from Larch releases (github.com). In addition, you can use git to grab the latest development version of the source code:git clone http://github.com/xraypy/xraylarch.git" After unpacking the source distribution kit, installation from source on any platform is:

python setup.py install
