Installation
It is recommended to install MyHDL (and your project's other dependencies) in a virtualenv.
Installing the latest stable release:
pip install myhdl
Unfortunately the version on PyPI is quite behind the current development status, so you are better off installing the stable master branch directly from this GitHub repository:
pip install git+https://github.com/myhdl/myhdl.git@master
To install a local clone of the repository:
pip install -e path/to/dir
To install a specific commit hash, tag or branch from git:
pip install git+https://github.com/myhdl/myhdl@f696b8
You can test the proper installation as follows:
cd myhdl/test/core
py.test
To install co-simulation support:
Go to the directory cosimulation/<platform> for your target platform
and following the instructions in the README.txt file.
