Installing the Tool

There are two ways to install the tool:

1. Use pip
2. Source from github

Let’s cover both ways. But the first recommended step is to setup a virtualenv environment.

Follow the instructions here or a quick method:

$ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 scaffolder
$ source scaffolder/bin/activate

Once the virtual environment is setup you can move on to the next step, either using pip or source installation.

Pip Install

To install the latest release of the scaffolder, use:

$ pip3 install --upgrade l2tscaffolder

Install From Sources

First fetch the latest source code from github:

$ git clone https://github.com/log2timeline/l2tscaffolder.git

Then install dependencies and compile and install the tool:

$ cd l2tscaffolder
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
$ python3 setup.py build && python3 setup.py install
