Source Installation (Ubuntu 20.04)

These are instructions I came up with when installing CellProfiler-Analyst on Ubuntu 20.04, I installed in a python venv to avoid conflicts with other python libs on the server, hope they can help:

# install dependencies from ubuntu repos
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y \
    build-essential \
    default-libmysqlclient-dev \
    git \
    libgtk-3-dev \
    libnotify-dev \
    libsdl2-dev \
    libzmq3-dev \
    locales \
    openjdk-11-jdk-headless \
    python3-pip \
    python3-venv

# clone git-repo
git clone https://github.com/CellProfiler/CellProfiler-Analyst.git

# It is probably best to checkout a specific tag here,
git checkout 3.0.4

# enter cloned repo
cd CellProfiler-Analyst

# create and activete venv
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

# install pip depeendencies (not in requirements.txt)
pip install numpy

# add JAVA_HOME (needed py some pip packages, when building with wheel)
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64

# build and compile Python dependencies and CellProfiler-Analyst
pip install -e .

To run the program you could create a simple bash-script CellProfiler-Analyst.sh activating venv and running main module

#!/usr/bin/env bash
source /**<install-dir>**/venv/bin/activate
python3 -m CellProfiler-Analyst

To remove program, just rm the CellProfiler-Analyst directory that also contains the Python venv directory
