If you want to understand how mitype works or want to debug an issue, you'll want to get the source, build it, and run it locally.
First, fork the mitype repository so that you can make a pull request. Clone your fork locally and then you can navigate to the directory where you've cloned the repository.
git clone https://github.com/<<<your-github-account>>>/mitype.git
cd where-you-cloned-mitype
Once you have a local copy of mitype cloned, you can directly run mitype in Development Mode.
python -m mitype [OPTION]... [FILE]...
You'll need windows_curses installed for running mitype on windows. You can install it by running the following command.
pip install windows_curses==2.3.0
You can install the module directly from sources by running the following command.
python setup.py install
Install Sphinx and Read the Docs Sphinx Theme by running the following command.
pip install sphinx sphinx_rtd_theme
To build the docs locally, run -
sphinx-build ./docs/source ./build
The HTML pages are built in build\sphinx\html
.
