## Installation
## Development environment
### Linux (or WSL)
Start off by installing [Pyenv](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv?tab=readme-ov-file#installation) and walk through the steps outlined there (be sure to also add it to PATH). Also install the [Python build requirements](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki#suggested-build-environment). Afterwards, install Python 2.7 and activate it for your current SHELL:
Start off by installing [Pyenv](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv?tab=readme-ov-file#installation) and walk through the steps outlined there (be sure to also add it to PATH). Also install the [Python build requirements](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki#suggested-build-environment). Afterwards, install Python 2.7 and activate it for your current shell:
```bash
pyenv install 2.7
pyenv shell 2.7
```
You can check that this worked by typing
```bash
python -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>/
python -m pip install virtualenv
python -m virtualenv .venv
source .venv/bin/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. Begin by downloading the SDK:
```bash
wget https://community-static.aldebaran.com/resources/2.5.10/Python%20SDK/pynaoqi-python2.7-2.5.7.1-linux64.tar.gz
```
Next, move into the `site-packages` directory and extract the file you just downloaded:
```bash
cd .venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
tar xvfz <path to SDK>/pynaoqi-python2.7-2.5.7.1-linux64.tar.gz
rm <path to SDK>/pynaoqi-python2.7-2.5.7.1-linux64.tar.gz
```
Lastly, we need to inform our virtual environment where to find our newly installed package:
```bash
echo <path to project>/.venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pynaoqi-python2.7-2.5.7.1-linux64/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ > pynaoqi-python2.7.pth
```
That's it! Verify that it works with
```bash
python -c "import qi; print(qi)"
```
You should now be able to run this project.
