If you want to -learn about using ØMQ in general, the excellent [ØMQ -Guide](http://zguide.zeromq.org/py:all) is the place to start, which has a -Python version of every example. We also have some information on our -[wiki](https://github.com/zeromq/pyzmq/wiki). - -## Downloading - -Unless you specifically want to develop PyZMQ, we recommend downloading -the PyZMQ source code or wheels from -[PyPI](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyzmq). On Windows, you can get `.exe` installers -from [Christoph Gohlke](http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyzmq). - -You can also get the latest source code from our GitHub repository, but -building from the repository will require that you install Cython -version 0.16 or later. - -## Building and installation - -For more detail on building pyzmq, see [our Wiki](https://github.com/zeromq/pyzmq/wiki/Building-and-Installing-PyZMQ). - -We build wheels for OS X and Windows, so you can get a binary on those platforms with: - - pip install pyzmq - -but compiling from source with `pip install pyzmq` should work in most environments. -Especially on OS X, make sure you are using the latest pip (≥ 6), or it may not find the right wheels. - -If the wheel doesn't work for some reason, or you want to force pyzmq to be compiled -(this is often preferable if you already have libzmq installed and configured the way you want it), -you can force installation with: - - pip install --no-use-wheel pyzmq - -When compiling pyzmq (e.g. installing with pip on Linux), -it is generally recommended that zeromq be installed separately, -via homebrew, apt, yum, etc: - - # Debian-based - sudo apt-get install libzmq3-dev - - # RHEL-based - sudo yum install libzmq3-devel - -If this is not available, pyzmq will *try* to build libzmq as a Python Extension, -though this is not guaranteed to work. - -Building pyzmq from the git repo (including release tags on GitHub) requires Cython. - -## Old versions - -For libzmq 2.0.x, use pyzmq release 2.0.10.1. - -pyzmq-2.1.11 was the last version of pyzmq to support Python 2.5, -and pyzmq ≥ 2.2.0 requires Python ≥ 2.6. -pyzmq-13.0.0 introduces PyPy support via CFFI, which only supports libzmq-3.2.2 and newer. - -PyZMQ releases ≤ 2.2.0 matched libzmq versioning, but this is no longer the case, -starting with PyZMQ 13.0.0 (it was the thirteenth release, so why not?). -PyZMQ ≥ 13.0 follows semantic versioning conventions accounting only for PyZMQ itself. - |
