# Installation
This package can be installed in two different ways:
- [Python Package](#python-package)
- [Build from source](#build-from-source)
## Python Package
```{note}
This is the best and most common method.
```
As the library is published on [pypi](https://pypi.org/project/VideoService/), it can be installed directly via pip on the terminal.
To install the package you run the command:
`pip install VideoService`
If you want to install a custom version instead of the latest you can run:
`pip install VideoService==0.2.0`
## Build from source
For building from source you need to follow the next steps:
- First go to release page and select the version. [Here](https://github.com/Dtar380/VideoService/release)
- Then download the `source.zip` file and unzip the file on a custom directory.
- Now make sure you're running a supported python version. (3.8 onwards)
- At last run `python -m pip install -e .[doc]`.
```{note}
You can select extra versions of the package so that it installs extra dependencies, such as -e .[dev]
```
```{warning}
Do not errase the code from the source folder as the python package is running from that source code.
```
