I also cleaned up the installation section and added links to various competing redo implementations. The new README.md is basically just link to the docs on readthedocs.org, and a link to the mailing list. These docs need a *lot* more work, but this is enough of an improvement that I'll commit it anyway for now.

# Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Currently, this version of redo requires python2.7 and the python2.7 sqlite3 module.
|
|
Optional, but recommended, is the
|
|
[setproctitle](http://code.google.com/p/py-setproctitle/) module, which makes your
|
|
`ps` output prettier.
|
|
|
|
In modern versions of Debian, sqlite3 is already part of the python2.7 package.
|
|
You can install the requirements like this:
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo apt-get install python2.7 python-setproctitle
|
|
```
|
|
(If you have install instructions for other OSes, please add them here :))
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Clone, compile, and test redo
|
|
|
|
You can run redo without installing it, like this:
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://github.com/apenwarr/redo
|
|
cd redo
|
|
./redo -j10 test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If the tests pass, you can either add $PWD/redo to your PATH, or install
|
|
redo on your system. To install for all users, put it in /usr/local:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
PREFIX=/usr/local sudo ./redo install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or to install it just for yourself (without needing root access), put it in
|
|
your home directory:
|
|
```sh
|
|
PREFIX=$HOME ./redo install
|
|
```
