Manual download of scripts
If you don't have the option or want't to install git on your system, then go to
https://github.com/Pymol-Scripts/Pymol-script-repo
Click the "ZIP" button, near the top left corner. Now unpack the files to a directory. For example:
C:/Users/YOURNAME/Documents/Pymol-script-repo
or
/home/YOURNAME/Software/pymol
Now go to: Adding Pymol-script-repo to PyMOL search path [1]
Git install instructions
For Windows users
- Install Git for Windows.
Use following settings in options, (You can read more here).
- Windows Explorer Integration -> Context Menu Entries -> Git Bash Here + Git GUI here
- Run Git and included Unix tools from Windows Command prompts
- Checkout Windows style, commit Unix-style endings
- Navigate to: C:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\pymol
- Right click in folder -> Select: Git Gui -> Clone Existing Repository
- Source Location: git://github.com/Pymol-Scripts/Pymol-script-repo.git
- Target Directory: C:\\Users\\YOURNAME\\Documents\\pymol\Pymol-script-repo
- A backslash "\" in a string is is used for escape sequences. To get a real backslash in a string, use double backslash "\\"
You now have all the scripts available in your directory.
For Linux users
- Install git
# Debian/Ubuntu/Mint sudo apt-get install git # Fedora su -c 'yum install git' # openSUSE sudo zypper in git
- Navigate to desired folder:
cd /home/YOURNAME/Software/pymol git clone git://github.com/Pymol-Scripts/Pymol-script-repo.git
You now have all the scripts available in: /home/YOURNAME/Software/pymol/Pymol-script-repo
Adding Pymol-script-repo to PyMOL search path
You now have to add the "Pymol-script-repo" directory to the PyMOL search path.
PyMOL has since revision 3997 (30/04/21012) an improved plugin/script manager. You have to remove old installations of plugins first, to get the automatic plugin installation to work.
For Windows users
- Open notepad
- Write (Remember double backslashes)
import sys,os sys.path.append('C:\\Users\\YOURNAME\\Documents\\pymol\\Pymol-script-repo') os.environ['PYMOL_GIT_MOD']='C:\\Users\\YOURNAME\\Documents\\pymol\\Pymol-script-repo\\modules' import plugins os.chdir('C:\\Users\\YOURNAME\\Documents\\pymol') # Your standard working dir
Save under: C:\Users\YOURNAME\pymolrc.pym (Set: "Save as type" to "All files")
For Linux users
gedit ~/.pymolrc
Write
import sys,os
sys.path.append('/home/YOU/Software/pymol/Pymol-script-repo')
os.environ['PYMOL_GIT_MOD']='/home/YOU/Software/pymol/Pymol-script-repo/modules'
import plugins
os.chdir('/home/YOU/Software/pymol/') # Your standard working dir
Save and exit
Alternative
Or perhaps insert the following code instead (no need to insert USERNAME, so more generic)
# eventually add ~/Software/pymol/Pymol-script-repo to sys.path
import sys, os
sys.path.append(os.path.expanduser('~/Software/pymol/Pymol-script-repo'))
os.environ['PYMOL_GIT_MOD']=os.path.expanduser('~/Software/pymol/Pymol-script-repo/modules')
# load the module
import plugins
Test the Scripts
Now start PyMOL, and test in PyMOL.
print sys.path import colorbydisplacement help(colorbydisplacement)
Get latest changes to scripts
If new scripts are available or changes have been made, then:
For windows users
- Navigate to C:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\Pymol-script-repo
- Right click in folder -> Select: Git Bash
- Write in terminal
git pull origin master
For Ubuntu/Mint users
- Navigate to /home/YOURNAME/Software/pymol/Pymol-script-repo
- Write in terminal.
git pull origin master
