how to install the modules, any machine dependencies it may have and any
other information that should be provided before the modules are installed.

### Installation

Used next development environment

![debian linux os](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vroncevic/daemonpy/dev/docs/debtux.png)

[![daemonpy python3 build](https://github.com/vroncevic/daemonpy/actions/workflows/daemonpy_python3_build.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/vroncevic/daemonpy/actions/workflows/daemonpy_python3_build.yml)

Currently there are three ways to install package
* Install process based on using pip mechanism
* Install process based on build mechanism
* Install process based on setup.py mechanism
* Install process based on docker mechanism

##### Install using pip

Python package is located at **[pypi.org](https://pypi.org/project/daemonpy/)**.

You can install by using pip

```bash
# python3
pip3 install daemonpy
```

##### Install using build

Navigate to **[release page](https://github.com/vroncevic/daemonpy/releases)** download and extract release archive.

To install **daemonpy** type the following

```bash
tar xvzf daemonpy-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd daemonpy-x.y.z
# python3
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 -m build
pip3 install dist/daemonpy-x.y.z-py3-none-any.whl
```

##### Install using py setup

Navigate to **[release page](https://github.com/vroncevic/daemonpy/releases)** download and extract release archive.

To install **daemonpy**, locate and run setup.py with arguments

```bash
tar xvzf daemonpy-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd daemonpy-x.y.z
# python3
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 setup.py install_lib
python3 setup.py install_egg_info
```

##### Install using docker

You can use Dockerfile to create image/container.
