Pip installation; is git preferred over PyPI? #59

Summary

I recommend changing the README to either:

  1. Suggest pip install yake instead of pip install git+https://github.com/LIAAD/yake
  2. Explain that pip installing the git repo is preferred to PyPI

Details

The README currently recommends a pip installation targeting the git repository:

Installation

To install Yake using pip:

pip install git+https://github.com/LIAAD/yake

But PyPI also has packages, and there are other issues regarding PyPI.

I generally prefer targeting specific versions (e.g. pip install yake==0.4.8) for reproducible builds. Is there a reason to prefer the git taget instead of PyPI? If so, I recommend adding a line to the README so that it is clear.

Thanks!

I prefer PyPI, it's more easy
