CellProfiler Analyst Developer's version installation for Mac

Mario Emmenlauer edited this page Jun 9, 2016 · 30 revisions

Note: CPA is currently not building for OSX Yosemite and higher. Please refer to our [vagrant solution] (https://github.com/CellProfiler/metabolism).

CPA developer's version used to require CP to be installed, but it should be independent with the javabridge, etc now factored out (afaik). Nevertheless, these notes are using my Mac (10.9) which already had CP developer's version working (May 2014).

Then from within virtualenv (following instructions to start virtualenv here)

pip install javabridge

pip install python-bioformats

pip install verlib

pip install mock (not sure if this is strictly necessary, but it was also listed in requirements.txt here so I pip-installed it)

Run CPA with (still from within virtualenv)

pythonw32 ./<YOUR CPA GITHUB DIR>/CellProfiler-Analyst.py

Tweaks

After installation, you might want to check the page [https://github.com/CellProfiler/CellProfiler-Analyst/wiki/CellProfiler-Analyst-Developer-Tweaks](CellProfiler Analyst Developer Tweaks) for relevant optimizations and performance tweaks.
