Installation
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Unix-like operating systems
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
The latest stable version is available to install using `pip <http://www.pip-installer.org/>`_:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
# pip install livestreamer
|
|
|
|
But you can also get the development version using `Git <http://git-scm.com/>`_:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ git clone git://github.com/chrippa/livestreamer.git
|
|
$ cd livestreamer
|
|
# python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
Windows
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Livestreamer is primarily developed for Unix-like operating systems where using a CLI is common. There is however an installer available for brave Windows users who don't mind using the command prompt.
|
|
|
|
The installer can be `downloaded from Github <https://github.com/chrippa/livestreamer/releases>`_. It contains a precompiled version of Livestreamer that does not require you to install any of the dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Dependencies
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Livestreamer currently depends on these libraries/programs to function.
|
|
|
|
To run the setup script you need:
|
|
|
|
- `Python <http://python.org/>`_ (at least version 2.6) or `PyPy <http://pypy.org/>`_
|
|
- `python-setuptools <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools>`_ or `python-distribute <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
These will be installed automatically by the setup script if they are missing:
|
|
|
|
- `python-argparse <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/argparse>`_ (only needed on Python version <2.7 and <3.2)
|
|
- `python-requests <http://docs.python-requests.org/>`_ (at least version 1.0)
|
|
|
|

|
|
For RTMP based plugins:
|
|
|
|
- `RTMPDump <http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/>`_ (Twitch/Justin.tv streams require at least version 2.4)
|
|
|
|
