Build instructions

Simplified build using make

make #build c extension inplace

Manual build

#build in place and use from the same folder
#sometimes necessary to remove build folder and .so
#by hand
python setup.py build_ext --inplace

To use make sure that the .so and potentially python files are in PYTHONPATH (or installed in developer mode)

#conda
conda develop install . 

#or with pip
pip install --editable .
