Building locally
43-
================

To build this library locally you'll need to install the
46-
`circuitpython-build-tools <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython-build-tools>`_ package.
47-
48-
.. code-block:: shell
49-
50-
python3 -m venv .env
51-
source .env/bin/activate
52-
pip install circuitpython-build-tools

Once installed, make sure you are in the virtual environment:

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from
34+
PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-mcp4725/>`_. To install for current user:
5535

5636
.. code-block:: shell
5737
58-
source .env/bin/activate
38+
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mcp4725

Then run the build:

Sphinx is used to build the documentation based on rST files and comments in the code. First,
70-
install dependencies (feel free to reuse the virtual environment from above):

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name

Documentation

=============

This will output the documentation to ``docs/_build/html``. Open the index.html in your browser to
86-
view them. It will also (due to -W) error out on any warning like Travis will. This is a good way to
87-
locally verify it will pass.
