Installing ChipWhisperer/Installing ChipWhisperer from Git

If you want the cutting-edge version of ChipWhisperer, you can clone the repository. If you have Git already set up, this is easy to do:

git clone git@github.com:newaetech/chipwhisperer.git
cd chipwhisperer/software
python setup.py develop --user

The user flag installs ChipWhisperer in the user's local python site-packages directory.

You may also want the OpenADC software, which is necessary to build new firmware for the ChipWhisperer FPGA. This is unnecessary for most users. If you need it:

cd ..
git submodule init
git submodule update
cd openadc/controlsw/python
python setup.py develop --user
