Question

I want to install a python package availble in GitHub ( https://github.com/palash1992/GEM ) named GEM (graph embedding methods). but I dont know how and from which point should I start. Can anyone give a step by step installing instruction? I dont have git on my computer. Should I have install it first? For more information I have python 3.7 version on my system.

1. I already tried using: pip install GEM command in cmd.
2. pip install git+git://github.com/palash1992/GEM.

Non of them worked.

As @Tino said, your answer could be in the GitHub readme file. Here are the instructions:

The package uses setuptools, which is a common way of installing python modules. To install in your home directory, use:

    python setup.py install --user

Just copy and paste the above line into your command prompt and you should be fine.
