Quickstart

We assume you already have credentials to access the Remote Lab. You can request access here.

1

Download the causalchamber package

You can install the package via pip, i.e.,

pip install causalchamber

2

Set up your credentials

Upon becoming a subscriber, you will receive your credentials through a secure link. Store them in a file with the following content

[api_keys]
user = <YOUR USERNAME>
password = <YOUR PASSWORD>

You can also load the credentials using environment variables (see the next step).

Store your credentials in a safe place. Make sure you don't commit them to a public repository!

You're done!
