FAQ

Why isn't the caravel executable in my path?

By default, Python packages are installed to ~/.local/bin. You can add this location to your path by appending it (export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin).

How can I analyze my project interactively?

Caravel uses the peppy package to model Project and Sample objects under the hood. These project objects are actually useful outside of looper. If you define your project using pep format, you can use the project models to instantiate an in memory representation of your project and all of its samples, without using looper.

If you're interested in this, you should check out the peppy package. All the documentation for model objects has moved there.
