Check FAQ for setting python3 as default in Ubuntu.

Install with Anaconda

You may have to add bioconda to your channels beforehand as FAS requires the some packages from this channel:

conda config --add channels bioconda

Then, from an activated conda environment, install FAS with

conda install -c BIONF fas

Install without Anaconda

First, get the source code of FAS from our github:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/BIONF/FAS

Then go to FAS directory and run pip install (*):

cd FAS
pip install .

(*) In case you do not have admin rights, and don't use package systems like Anaconda to manage environments you need to use the --user option:

pip install --user .

and then add the following line to the end of your .bashrc or .bash_profile file, restart the current terminal to apply the change:

export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH
