Install Python prerequisites:

Python setuptools and python package manager (pip) install packages into system directory by default. There are several options:

• work inside [virtual environment][virtualenv] (best solution).
• use --user option for all pip commands.
• install all dependencies with sudo permissions.

In order to use virtual environment you should install it:

python3 -m pip install virtualenv
python3 -m virtualenv -p `which python3` <directory_for_environment>

Before starting to work inside virtual environment, it should be activated:

source <directory_for_environment>/bin/activate

Virtual environment can be deactivated using command

deactivate

You can install tools by specifying path to tool with setup.py in pip install command:

python3 -m pip install <tools_folder>/

For example, to install Benchmark Tool, use the following command:

python3 -m pip install benchmark_tool/
