# Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Of the Pepper Robot Interface on Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
Install Python 2.7.18 from [the Python website](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2718/), choose the x86-64 installer (at the bottom of the page).
|
||||
|
||||
To see if it worked:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
py -2 -V
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Which should return `Python 2.7.18`.
|
||||
|
||||
Next, `cd` into this repository and create (and activate) a virtual environment:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd <path to project>/
|
||||
py -2 -m pip install virtualenv
|
||||
py -2 -m virtualenv .venv
|
||||
.\.venv\Scripts\activate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Install the required packages with
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now we need to install the NaoQi SDK into our virtual environment, which we need to do manually. Download the SDK from [Aldebaran](https://community-static.aldebaran.com/resources/2.5.5/sdk-python/pynaoqi-python2.7-2.5.5.5-win32-vs2013.zip), [Web Archive](https://web.archive.org/web/20240120111043/https://community-static.aldebaran.com/resources/2.5.5/sdk-python/pynaoqi-python2.7-2.5.5.5-win32-vs2013.zip) or [twirre.io](https://twirre.io/files/pynaoqi-python2.7-2.8.6.23-win64-vs2015-20191127_152649.zip).
|
||||
|
||||
Extract to `.\.venv\Lib\site-packages`.
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file `.venv\Lib\site-packages\pynaoqi-python2.7.pth`, put the full path of `pynaoqi-python2.7-2.8.6.23-win64-vs2015-20191127_152649\lib\python2.7\Lib\site-packages` in there.
|
||||
|
||||
Test if it worked by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python -c "import qi; print(qi)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You should now be able to run this project.
|
||||
|
||||
See the README for how to run.
