For basic client usage, no dependencies are required beyond the basic Python environment; the GUI clients require PyQt4. See [[EMEN2/EMDash|EMDash]] for more information about EMEN2 desktop utilities.

On the database server side, Berkeley DB and bsddb3 are required for basic functionality. If you want to run the web server, you will also need Twisted, Markdown, and Mako. Additional server features, such as thumbnails and plotting, are provided by EMAN2 and ImageMagick.

Please note that we include all the EMEN2 dependencies listed below in the EMAN2 binary distribution. This is the recommended way to install and use EMEN2. See [[EMAN2]] for information about EMAN2.

See [[EMEN2/Install]] for instructions on installing EMEN2 once all dependencies are installed.

== Python Environment ==

 * Python 2.6 or 2.7
  * Note: do not use Python 3.0+
  * http://www.python.org


== Core Database ==

 * Berkeley DB 5.x+
  * BDB is the storage and transactional backend for EMEN2
  * Note: Relatively recent 4.8.2x release are probably OK as well
  * http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/index.html

 * bsddb3 5.x+
  * Python bindings for Berkeley DB
  * Note: Relatively recent 4.8.2x release are probably OK as well

  * "easy_install bsddb3"

 * dateutil
  * A library for accurate manipulation of dates and times
  * http://labix.org/python-dateutil
  * "easy_install dateutil"

== Web Server ==

 * Mako Templates (latest)
  * A simple, fast templating system for Python
  * http://www.makotemplates.org/
  * "easy_install mako"

 * Twisted 10.x+
  * An event-driven networking engine written in Python
  * http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/
  * "easy_install twisted"

 * Markdown
  * Simplified rich-text editing
  * "easy_install Markdown"

== Web Server: Optional ==

 * EMAN2 (highly recommended)
  * EMAN2 is optionally used to generate browsable micrograph previews.
  * http://ncmi.bcm.edu/ncmi/software/counter_222/software_86

 * ImageMagick (recommended)
  * Thumbnail and document preview support for "normal" image formats (jpg, png, etc.)
  * Commonly installed on Linux
  * http://www.imagemagick.org/

 * pyOpenSSL
  * Network encryption
  * "easy_install pyOpenSSL"

EMEN2 Dependencies

For basic client usage, no dependencies are required beyond the basic Python environment; the GUI clients require PyQt4. See EMDash for more information about EMEN2 desktop utilities.

On the database server side, Berkeley DB and bsddb3 are required for basic functionality. If you want to run the web server, you will also need Twisted, Markdown, and Mako. Additional server features, such as thumbnails and plotting, are provided by EMAN2 and ImageMagick.

Please note that we include all the EMEN2 dependencies listed below in the EMAN2 binary distribution. This is the recommended way to install and use EMEN2. See EMAN2 for information about EMAN2.

See EMEN2/Install for instructions on installing EMEN2 once all dependencies are installed.
