I am just diving into the Python world and want to make a simple twitter application which requires the installation of simplejson but not sure how I can set it up and get it working..
I am on a Windows System
I would recommend EasyInstall, a package management application for Python.
Once you've installed EasyInstall, you should be able to go to a command window and type:
easy_install simplejson
This may require putting easy_install.exe on your PATH first, I don't remember if the EasyInstall setup does this for you (something like C:\Python25\Scripts
).
If you have Python 2.6 installed then you already have simplejson - just import json
; it's the same thing.
You can import json as simplejson like this:
import json as simplejson
and keep backward compatibility.
Download the source code, unzip it to and directory, and execute python setup.py install.
