Installation/Updates

See the following instructions on how to install or update the package from common sources like PyPI. Developers can also install the packages with development dependencies. In case of local development, see the additional sections on how to run unit tests, type checks or how to build the documentation to create all the build artifacts.

See the list of necessary dependencies.

Using PIP to Install from PyPI

The following instruction are using PIP (Package Installer for Python) as a package manager and PyPI (Python Package Index) as a source of Python packages.

PIP might download further packages as listed in package dependencies.

Installing a Wheel Package from PyPI using PIP

Running unit tests

This package is provided with unit tests for pytest. The provided testcases can be executed locally for testing or development purposes. In addition, code coverage including branch coverage can be collected using Coverage.py. All steps provide appropriate artifacts as XML or HTML reports. The artifact output directories are specified in pyproject.toml.

Ensure unit testing requirements are installed.

Linux/macOS

Unit Testing

cd <pyEDAA.IPXACT>

# Running unit tests using pytest
pytest -raP --color=yes tests/unit

Unit Testing with Ant/JUnit XML Reports

cd <pyEDAA.IPXACT>

Running type checks

This package is provided with type checks. These can be executed locally for testing or development purposes using mypy. The artifact output directory is specified in pyproject.toml.

Ensure unit testing requirements are installed.

Linux/macOS

cd <pyEDAA.IPXACT>

# Running type checking using mypy
export MYPY_FORCE_COLOR=1
mypy -p pyEDAA.IPXACT

Windows

cd <pyEDAA.IPXACT>

# Running type checking using mypy
$env:MYPY_FORCE_COLOR = 1
mypy -p pyEDAA.IPXACT

Building documentation

The documentation can be build locally using Sphinx. It can generate HTML and LaTeX outputs. In an additional step, the LaTeX output can be translated to a PDF file using a LaTeX environment like MiKTeX.

Ensure documentation requirements are installed.

cd <pyEDAA.IPXACT>

# Adding package root to PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd)
cd doc

Local Packaging and Installation via PIP

For development and bug fixing it might be handy to create a local wheel package and also install it locally on the development machine. The following instructions will create a local wheel package (*.whl) and then use PIP to install it. As a user might have a pyEDAA.IPXACT installation from PyPI, it’s recommended to uninstall any previous pyEDAA.IPXACT packages. (This step is also needed if installing an updated local wheel file with same version number. PIP will not detect a new version and thus not overwrite/reinstall the updated package contents.)

Ensure packaging requirements are installed.

Linux/macOS

cd <pyEDAA.IPXACT>

# Package the code in a wheel (*.whl)
python3 -m build --wheel

# Uninstall the old package
python3 -m pip uninstall -y pyEDAA.IPXACT

# Install from wheel
python3 -m pip install ./dist/pyEDAA.IPXACT-0.4.0-py3-none-any.whl

Windows

cd <pyEDAA.IPXACT>

# Package the code in a wheel (*.whl)
py -m build --wheel

# Uninstall the old package
py -m pip uninstall -y pyEDAA.IPXACT

# Install from wheel
py -m pip install .\dist\pyEDAA.IPXACT-0.4.0-py3-none-any.whl

Note

The legacy ways of building a package using setup.py bdist_wheel and installation using setup.py install is not recommended anymore.
