EVA ICS on Ubuntu: copy/paste install

This article describes, how to install EVA ICS on Ubuntu or Debian. Actually it duplicates the information from EVA ICS installation docs, however is focused on Ubuntu with local mosquitto MQTT server, has minimal description and contains all required commands which could be just copy/pasted in console shell.

So let’s consider you have fresh Ubuntu install (I’ve used 18.04 LTS). What should be done, before we can launch EVA ICS easy-setup:

Install required OS packages
Configure local mosquitto MQTT server
Configure EVA ICS venv to skip building “heavy” numpy/pandas modules (we’ll use them from OS repository)

Let’s go.
