Cannot execute get-modflow after installing flopy

[Qing-sudo]

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the executable modflow program (mf6) using Flopy. So I first installed python3, numpy, and Matplotlib, then I installed Flopy package. But when I tried to run get-modflow: Flopy, a bug occurred "-bash get-modflow command not found". Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Any tip will be appreciated!

Thanks,
Qing

Hi @Qing-sudo, get-modflow is currently an unreleased feature, although it should come out with 3.3.6 very shortly. Try removing your installed version of FloPy then install from the develop branch, e.g.

pip install pip install git+https://github.com/modflowpy/flopy.git

Since develop is the default branch the README reflects the development state of FloPy, not the official release. It is a bit confusing that the develop version shows by default since the README may be many people's entry point to FloPy, maybe we could clarify somewhere.
