Overview

WinPython is a portable distribution of the Python programming language for Windows (https://winpython.github.io).

This is the winpython Python package, not the distribution itself. It includes two main features:

WinPython Package Manager (WPPM): a graphical layer over pip, to let you install/uninstall to your WinPython distribution any standard Python package built as source (e.g. "dummypackage-2.1.zip" or "dummypackage-2.1.tar.gz") or as wheel (e.g. "dummypackage-2.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl")
WinPython build toolchain: make.py is the script used to build a WinPython distribution from (almost) scratch.

Dependencies

Python2 >= 2.7 or Python3 >= 3.4 (Python>= 3.7 is recommended)
PyQt5 >= 5.6 or PySide2>=5.11 (PyQt5 >=5.12 or Pyside2 >= 5.12 is recommended)

Requirements

NSIS (for icon shortcut creations, installer can be NSIS, INNO, 7-Zip, or nothing)
PyQt5 or Pyside2 is required to execute WinPython Control Panel/Ipython Qt and Qt related packages. if not installed, these packages will not execute.

Installation

From the source package (see section 'Building dependencies'), you may install WinPython using the integrated setup.py script based on Python standard library distutils with the following command:

python setup.py install

Note that distutils does not uninstall previous versions of Python packages: it simply copies files on top of an existing installation. When using this command, it is thus highly recommended to uninstall manually any previous version of WinPython by removing the associated directory ('winpython' in your site-packages directory).

From the Python package index, you may simply install WinPython and upgrade an existing installation using pip: https://pypi.org

But the easiest way to install the last stable release of WinPython is by using an executable installer: https://winpython.github.io/
