If you want to develop for ballotbox or use the latest code we’re working on, you can install from the sources. You’ll need bzr installed, and then just do the following:
$ bzr branch lp:ballotbox
$ cd ballotbox
$ sudo python setup.py install
You can use the setuptools easy_install script to get ballotbox on your system:
$ sudo easy_install ballotbox
You can manually download the source tarball from the Python Package Index by visiting the following URL:
You’ll need to untar and gunzip the source, cd into the source directory, and then you can do the usual:
$ sudo python setup.py install
Once installed, as long as you have Twisted installed on your system and the trial script in your PATH, you can test the source code by executing this anywhere:
$ trial ballotbox
That will run the test suite and report on the success and failure of any unit tests.
