Glutton assumes that you are using Python 2.7.X. You can check the version with:
python --version
Getting the Glutton Python module
Get the source distribution, untar it and cd into the Glutton source directory:
curl -O http://wasabiapp.org/download/glutton/Glutton-0.1.tar.gz tar xf Glutton-0.1.tar.gz cd Glutton-0.1/
Installation (with admin rights)
Use the setup script to install the Glutton module, the main Glutton application script and all python dependencies:
sudo python setup_with_extras.py install
WARNING: the installation directory will normally be something like /usr/local/bin for scripts and additional tools, but if you already have these programs installed they might be overwritten. To avoid this, you can set the script-dir (DIR must be in your PATH before any other locations containing the same tools Glutton installs):
sudo python setup_with_extras.py --script-dir=DIR install
To install just the Glutton module and the main application script, but no external tools, run:
sudo python setup.py install
Installation (without admin rights)
If you lack admin rights, then Glutton can be installed inside a virtual environment:
virtualenv env source ./env/bin/activate python setup_with_extras.py install glutton --help
External tools
Glutton relies on several external tools to function. Precompiled binaries for Linux are installed by setup.py (no other operating system is currently supported). If have any problems with this programs, then the issue might be resolved by installing them separately:
