<h3>GTK Client Dependencies<a class="headerlink" href="#gtk-client-dependencies" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>To run the GTK client you need to have <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">gi.repository</span></tt> avaiable in the python
environment, this means that if you use virtualenv to install the dependencies
of accounting-api you need to set it up with the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--system-site-packages</span></tt>
flag.</p>

<h2>Installation (i.e. Development Setup)<a class="headerlink" href="#installation-i-e-development-setup" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>accounting-api does not yet have a method for end-user installation. This
section describes how you would set up accounting-api for development purposes,
which can also be used as an environment to try out the functionality of
accounting-api.</p>
<p>See the sections below on how to install the dependencies. Then run the
following in your shell.</p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="c"># Get the source code</span>
git clone git://gitorious.org/conservancy/accounting-api.git
<span class="nb">cd </span>accounting-api

<span class="c"># Set up the python 3.3 virtualenv (this will make the GTK client not work)</span>
mkvirtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.3 accounting-api
<span class="c"># OR If you want the GTK client to work</span>
mkvirtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.3 --system-site-packages accounting-api

<span class="c"># If your terminal prompt does not say &quot;(accounting-api)&quot;, run</span>
