An easy way to install the dependencies is provided by using pip. Always consider to use virtualenv, be it for testing or for deployment.

mkdir virtualenv
virtualenv -p python3 ./virtualenv
source ./virtualenv/bin/activate
pip3 install -U -r requirements.txt

NOTE: When working on the project make sure to source the ./bin/activate file to set the environment correctly.

Development/Test Environment
