Install from other source than pip

If you don’t want to install from pip you can clone the git repository and install from there. If you want to install a specific branch of the repository, refer below.

Install ubirch library locally from folder

Inside of the repository folder run: $ pip install .

Install another branch than master

You can either clone new and specify the branch

$ git clone https://github.com/ubirch/ubirch-protocol-python.git --branch <other branch>

Or if git branch doesn’t return the branch you want to install, change it using git checkout

$ git branch
  ecdsa-examples
* master

$ git checkout <other branch>
Switched to a new branch 'ecdsa-examples'

Make sure correct branch is selected by running $ git branch again.
