Development

Prerequisites

• uv for installing Python, package management
• (Optionally) make. Should be installed by default, except on windows, where it is easiest to install it via Chocolatey choco install make

Development with make

There is a Makefile which wraps some common uv commands you will need during development.

Set Up Your Development Environment

Install the environment and the pre-commit hooks with

make install

This will also generate your uv.lock file.

Run code checks

make check

Run tests

make test

Build docs site

make docs

Development with uv

If you choose not to use make, you can use uv directly.

Set Up Your Development Environment

Install the environment and the pre-commit hooks with

uv sync
uv run pre-commit install

This will also generate your uv.lock file.

Run code checks

Run pre-commit checks, include ruff linting and formatting

uv run pre-commit run -a

Run type checking

uv run ty check

Run tests

uv run pytest

Build docs site

uv run mkdocs serve

Run compatibility tests

Compatability tests with tox are configured. Run them with

uv run tox

These are also run on CI, so not the end of the world if you don't do it locally.

Vendored SpectrumEngine import code

We need to re-use some of the PJNZ import code from SpectrumEngine. At the moment, this is vendored here directly. There is a script to update the vendored code which should be run before a release. The script uses a file ./scripts/spectrum_engine_ref to clone the specified branch or ref.

With make:

make pjnz-import-code

Run script directly

uv run ./scripts/update_pjnz_import_code.py

CLI

The CLI is built using typer which builds CLI docs automatically from python type hints and decorators. It also gives us some neat things like auto completion. And progress bars down the line!

Release process

Creating a release will

1. Build & push the package to PyPI
2. Build an updated docs site

To create a release you need to

1. Update the version number in the pyproject.toml or ensure it has updated since the last release
2. Go to the releases page and "Draft a new release"
3. Create a new tag, I usually use a tag which matches the version number you are releasing. Set a release title and text. Usually useful to include in the text a summary of the changes since the last release.
4. Publish the release. This will trigger a GitHub action which will push the package to PyPI and update the docs site.
