Installation

Stable release

To install gkeep, run these commands in your terminal:

$ sudo pip3 install -U gkeep

This is the preferred method to install gkeep, as it will always install the most recent stable release.

If you don’t have pip installed, this Python installation guide can guide you through the process.

Other releases

You can install other versions from Pypi using:

$ pip install gkeep==<version>

For versions that are not in Pypi (it is a development version):

$ pip install git+https://github.com/Nekmo/gkeep.git@<branch>#egg=gkeep

If you do not have git installed:

$ pip install https://github.com/Nekmo/gkeep/archive/<branch>.zip

Troubleshooting

Gkeep is unstable because it doesn’t use an official Google api. Before opening a new incident update gkeep and its dependencies to the latest version:

$ pip install -U gkeep --upgrade-strategy eager
