PDAL + Python in 5 Easy Steps

Get up and running with the PDAL Python package in just five easy steps!

First, from your host, pull and then fire up an alpine:edge container.

$ docker pull alpine:edge
$ docker run -it alpine:edge /bin/sh

Now, within your running container, add the edge/testing repository, install py2-pdal, and verify the imported PDAL version number.

$ echo "http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing" >> /etc/apk/repositories
$ apk add --no-cache py2-pdal
$ python -c "import pdal; print pdal.__version__"
