Installation and Setup

I highly recommend using conda to simplify the installation of fbprophet/pystan, but any package manager will work. fbprophet is not a required library, but it provides the best anomaly detection results.

To create a new virtual environment:

$ conda create --name qpy python=3
$ conda activate qpy

To install using pip:

$ pip install qualipy
$ conda install -c conda-forge pystan
$ conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet

To install using git:

$ git clone https://github.com/baasman/qualipy
$ cd qualipy
$ pip install .
$ conda install -c conda-forge pystan
$ conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet

By default, Qualipy will create a SQLite file to store and maintain all data. However, as data grows larger and more complex, Postgres becomes recommended. This is not a guide on running Postgres, but to get setup easily, docker is recommended.
