How To Install python3-shapely on Rocky Linux 8

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-shapely on Rocky Linux 8. python3-shapely is Manipulation and analysis of geometric objects in the Cartesian plane

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-shapely on Rocky Linux 8.

What is `python3-shapely`

Shapely is a package for creation, manipulation, and analysis of planar geometry objects – designed especially for developers of cutting edge geographic information systems. In a nutshell stuff outside the context of a database using idiomatic Python. You can use this package with python-matplotlib and numpy. See README.rst for more information!

We can use yum or dnf to install python3-shapely on Rocky Linux 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install python3-shapely.

Install python3-shapely on Rocky Linux 8 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

After updating yum database, We can install python3-shapely using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install python3-shapely

Install python3-shapely on Rocky Linux 8 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

After updating yum database, We can install python3-shapely using yum by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install python3-shapely

How To Uninstall python3-shapely on Rocky Linux 8
