Manta Core

Installing Manta Core

For a streamlined setup, it is recommended to install Manta Core using pre-built packages. This method ensures that all dependencies are properly handled, minimizing compatibility issues.

  1. Download the Wheel File: Obtain the pre-built wheel file for Manta Core from the official release repository.

  2. Install the Wheel File: Use pip to install the downloaded wheel file. Run the following command in your terminal:

pip install manta-<version>-py3-none-any.whl

This is the preferred installation approach for most users.

Docker Installation

While not strictly required for Manta Core itself, Docker is useful for building the container images that are deployed to Manta Nodes for running data science and machine learning tasks.
