Installation

TIP

Before installing SmartPy you can try out the online IDE.

SmartPy can be installed via pip.

pip install smartpy-tezos

Both Linux and macOS are supported. On Intel Macs Docker is required.

Details

It is recommended to use a virtualenv:

python -m venv smartpy-env

which should be activated before installation of SmartPy:

source smartpy-env/bin/activate

now install smartpy-tezos into the virtualenv with pip:

pip install smartpy-tezos

For alpha releases, remember to explicitly set the version you want:

pip install smartpy-tezos==<VERSION>

To test it, you can download an example and run it:

wget https://releases.smartpy.io/0.24.0a1/templates/welcome.py
python welcome.py

You should now see a new welcome/ directory with test results and compiled contracts:

$ ls Welcome/
