Step 2 - Installing deemon

Once you have at least Python 3.6 installed, go ahead and install deemon using pip. On some distributions, the pip command is for Python2. In this case, substitute pip for pip3 in the commands below.

Windows users: These commands should be typed in a Command Prompt, Windows Terminal or Powershell window.

# Latest stable release
$ pip install deemon

# Latest release (including pre-release/beta)
$ pip install --pre deemon

At this point, pip will download deemon and any other modules required to allow deemon to function. Once it’s complete, use the following command to make sure deemon is installed:

$ deemon -V
