MacOS High Sierra (10.13) through Catalina (10.15)

1. Install anaconda.

2. Create a new environment for pixplot, specifying a Python 3.7 interpreter:

conda create --name pixplot python=3.7

conda activate pixplot

3. Install pixplot and supporting packages:

pip install pixplot

pip install image_datasets (a helper utility to easily grab pixplot-ready datasets)

4. Get a sample dataset:

python

import image_datasets

image_datasets.oslomini.download()

(now exit python)

5. Test the installation:

time pixplot --images="datasets/oslomini/images/*.jpg" --metadata="datasets/oslomini/metadata/metadata.csv" --shuffle
