Install a MATLAB Compiler SDK Python Package

With the Generated Installer

The Library Compiler app generates an installer that installs the MATLAB^® Runtime and the files required to install the generated Python^® package. The app places the installer in the for_redistribution folder.

Copy the installer from the for_redistribution folder to the desired location.
Run the installer.
Note where the installer writes the Python package files.
When the installer finishes, open a command terminal in the folder containing the Python package files.
Run the Python set up script.
```
python setup.py install
```

Set the required environment variables.

On Linux^®:

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:mcrroot/runtime/glnxa64:
       mcrroot/bin/glnxa64:mcrroot/sys/os/glnxa64:
       mcrroot/sys/opengl/lib/glnxa64
setenv XAPPLRESDIR mcrroot/v90/X11/app-defaults

On OS X:

setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH ${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}:mcrroot/runtime/maci64:
       mcrroot/sys/os/maci64:mcrroot/bin/maci64

Note: If LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not defined on Linux, remove ${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}: from the code to set the environment variables. Similarly, on OS X, remove ${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}: if DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is not defined.

Note: mcrroot is the full path to the MATLAB Runtime installation.

Note: Commands must be entered as a single line.

Without the Generated Installer

If you already have the MATLAB Runtime installed, you can just install the Python package.

Copy the contents of the for_redistribution_files_only folder to the desired location.
Open a command terminal in the folder containing the Python package files.
Run the Python set up script.
```
python setup.py install
```

Set the required environment variables.

On Linux:

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $LD_LIBRARY_PATH:mcrroot/runtime/glnxa64:
       mcrroot/bin/glnxa64:mcrroot/sys/os/glnxa64:
       mcrroot/sys/opengl/lib/glnxa64
setenv XAPPLRESDIR mcrroot/v90/X11/app-defaults

On OS X:

setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:mcrroot/runtime/maci64:
       mcrroot/sys/os/maci64:mcrroot/bin/maci64

Note: mcrroot is the full path to the MATLAB Runtime installation.

Note: Commands must be entered as a single line.
