Quick Installation

Python packages

First, install the required Python packages::

# Completion and code navigation
pip install jedi
# Code checks
pip install flake8
# Automatic formatting (PEP8, Yapf or Black)
pip install autopep8
pip install yapf
pip install black

One-line install: pip install jedi flake8 autopep8 black yapf

With use-package

(use-package elpy
  :ensure t
  :init
  (elpy-enable))

Or if you want to defer Elpy loading:

(use-package elpy
  :ensure t
  :defer t
  :init
  (advice-add 'python-mode :before 'elpy-enable))

Manually from Melpa

Evaluate this in your *scratch* buffer:

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("melpa-stable" . "https://stable.melpa.org/packages/"))

Then run M-x package-refresh-contents to load the contents of the new repository, and M-x package-install RET elpy RET to install elpy.

Elpy can then be activated by running M-x elpy-enable. This can be made automatic by adding the following to your .emacs:

(elpy-enable)

From apt (Debian ≥10 an Ubuntu ≥18.10)

Users of Debian ≥10 or Ubuntu ≥18.10 can skip the instructions above this line and may simply install Elpy and all of its recommended dependencies with the following command::

sudo apt install elpa-elpy

Elpy can then be activated by running M-x elpy-enable. This can be made automatic by adding the following to your .emacs:

(elpy-enable)
