PyZoltan is as the name suggests, is a Python wrapper for the Zoltan_
data management library.

In PyZoltan, we wrap the specific routines and objects that we wish to
use. The following features of Zoltan are currently supported:

- Dynamic load balancing using geometric algorithms
- Unstructured point-to-point communication
- Distributed data directories

Installation
-------------

PyZoltan requires the following:

- numpy
- cyarray
- Cython
- mpi4py_
- Zoltan_

.. _mpi4py: http://mpi4py.scipy.org/

Zoltan itself needs to be already installed. We provide a convenient script
called ``build_zoltan.sh`` that can be used to build Zoltan.

Many of the other dependencies can be installed using pip or conda::

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Once this is installed one can install PyZoltan as follows::

$ pip install pyzoltan

or via the usual ``setup.py`` method::

$ python setup.py install # or develop

For more installation instructions, especially on how to build Zoltan and
PyZoltan, please see the documentation here: https://pyzoltan.readthedocs.io
