Installation¶
Ship-Shape-File-Navigator doesn’t require installation but requires a Python 2.7 interpreter with Tkinter.
If you have those in your system just get Ship, extract it to some place and run the shipshpfn/gui.py file,
from the Ship folder:
python shipshpfn/gui.py
or another path:
python [path_to_Ship]/shipshpfn/gui.py
Windows users¶
If you don’t have a python interpreter installed in your system, you can install the official Python interpreter (2.7 version) getting it from:
official Python web: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2711/
Linux users¶
You should have a Python 2.7 interpreter already installed in your system but some distros may not include the python-tk package. In that case you can install it from the repositories:
Debian/Ubuntu/Mint:¶
[sudo] apt-get install python-tk
RPM based (Fedora...):¶
yum install tkinter
GIT¶
Another way you could get and use Ship is directly from the repository, executing it with Python.
Cloning the repository:
git clone https://bitbucket.org/shipshp/shipshpfn.git
Executing from the repo folder:
python shipshpfn/gui.py
or another path:
python [path_to_repo]/shipshpfn/gui.py
In this way you may also have access to the latest development state of the application, just changing to the development branch:
git checkout development
