#### On windows:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Install [mingw32](http://www.mingw.org/) base and c++ compiler.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add C:\MinGW\bin to the windows PATH.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Enable distutils to compile with mingw32 by creating a distutils.cfg file in *PYTHONPATH\Lib\distutils* containing
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
[build]
|
||||||
|
compiler = mingw32
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If using virtualenv, copy the *PYTHONPATH\Lib\distutils* directory to the virtualenv.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It's recommended to use [Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages](http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/) for as many of the required packages as possible.
|
||||||
|
Currently, available binaries include:
|
||||||
|
- Cython
|
||||||
|
- Twisted
|
||||||
|
- Zope.interface
|
||||||
|
- pywin32
|
||||||
|
- Yapsy
|
||||||
|
- cx_Freeze
|
||||||
|
- requests
|
||||||
|
- gmpy
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Install the each of the preceding binaries with `pip install *.whl`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Install pywin32 system files by run `python.exe Scripts\pywin32_postinstall.py -install` from an elevated command prompt.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Install the rest of the required modules with the standard `pip install module` command
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The one module which requires additional work is [miniupnpc](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/miniupnpc/1.9).
|
||||||
|
Download the source and compile with MinGW by running `mingw32make.bat`
|
||||||
|
Then install the module by running `python setupmingw32.py install`
