hgraph

A functional reactive programming engine with a Python front-end.

This provides a DSL and runtime to support the computation of results over time, featuring a graph based directed acyclic dependency graph and the concept of time-series properties. The language is function-based, and promotes composition to extend behaviour.

Here is a simple example:

from hgraph import graph, evaluate_graph, GraphConfiguration, const, debug_print

@graph
def main():
    a = const(1)
    c = a + 2
    debug_print("a + 2", c)

evaluate_graph(main, GraphConfiguration())

Results in:

[1970-01-01 00:00:00.000385][1970-01-01 00:00:00.000001] a + 2: 3

See this for more information.

Development

The project is currently configured to make use of uv for dependency management. Take a look at the website to see how best to install the tool.

Here are some useful commands:

First, create a virtual environment in the project directory:

uv venv

Then use the following command to install the project and its dependencies:

# Install the project with all dependencies
uv pip install -e .

# Install with optional dependencies
uv pip install -e ".[docs,web,notebook]"

# Install with all optional dependencies
uv pip install -e ".[docs,web,notebook,test]"

PyCharm can make use of the virtual environment created by uv to setup the project.

Run Tests

# No Coverage
python -m pytest
# Generate Coverage Report
python -m pytest --cov=hgraph --cov-report=xml

Indexing with Context7 MCP

This repository includes a baseline configuration for Context7 MCP to improve code search and retrieval quality.

  • See docs/context7_indexing.md for guidance.
  • The root-level context7.yaml config sets sensible include/exclude rules, priorities, and summarization hints.

Packaging, CI, and Releases

This project uses scikit-build-core and cibuildwheel to build and publish cross-platform wheels, with uv as the package/venv manager.

  • Local build (PEP 517):

    # Build a wheel into dist/
    uv build -v
    # Optionally build sdist too
    uv build -v --sdist
    
  • Optional Conan (developer builds only):

    # Conan is not required for packaging but may be used in local builds
    uv tool install conan
    # Example of enabling Conan provider for a local build
    CMAKE_ARGS="-DCMAKE_PROJECT_TOP_LEVEL_INCLUDES=conan_provider.cmake" uv build -v
    
  • macOS notes:

    • Wheels target Apple Silicon (arm64) and require a macOS deployment target high enough for libc++ floating-point to_chars used by std::format.
    • The build system enforces MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=15.0 (arm64) during Release Wheels and sets a default in CMake if unset.
    • You can override locally via:
      CMAKE_ARGS="-DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=15.0 -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=arm64" uv build -v
      
  • Windows notes:

    • Build uses MSVC (Visual Studio 2022, x64). No MinGW.
    • If stack traces via backward-cpp are enabled, Windows links Dbghelp and Imagehlp automatically.
  • Linux notes:

    • Release wheels are built inside manylinux containers; optional backward-cpp integrations are disabled there for portability.

CI summary

.github/workflows/release-wheels.yml is the single flow: it builds, tests, and publishes.

  • Build — publish-grade wheels with cibuildwheel (Linux manylinux, macOS arm64, Windows AMD64) plus an sdist, validated with twine check and smoke-tested against Python 3.12, 3.13 and 3.14 on each OS.
  • Test — the full suite against the wheel that will actually be published, across Python 3.12, 3.13 and 3.14, under both the Python and C++ runtimes.
  • Publish — to PyPI via Trusted Publishing, on a tag.

The build and test jobs are skipped when the commit being tagged has already been through them successfully, so a release publishes what was already built and tested rather than repeating it.

Releasing (tag-driven)

Releases are automated via GitHub Actions with PyPI Trusted Publishing.

Prerequisites:

  • Enable Trusted Publishing for this GitHub repository in the PyPI project settings (Project → Settings → Trusted Publishers). No API token is needed once OIDC is configured.
  • The tag is the version authority; pyproject.toml does not need to match it. The version is stamped into the distribution metadata at publish time, which is what lets a release reuse artifacts built before the tag existed. The workflow commits the version back to the default branch afterwards.

Steps:

# Push the commit you want to release to main; that build is what gets published.
# You can tag it straight away - the release waits for that build rather than racing it.

git tag -a v_0.4.112 -m "release 0.4.112"
git push origin v_0.4.112

For a commit already built and tested on main, the workflow will:

  • Find that run and skip the build and the test matrix entirely. If that build is still running, it waits for it rather than starting a second one
  • Rewrite the version in the distribution metadata to match the tag, leaving the compiled extension byte-for-byte as it was built and tested
  • Validate with twine check and publish to PyPI (skipping files that already exist)

If no such run exists — the commit was never pushed to main, or its artifacts have passed the 14-day retention window — the workflow builds and tests from source first, then publishes.

Artifacts are uploaded for inspection as part of the workflow run.

CLion configuration tips

  • Use the project venv Python for nanobind discovery:
    • CMake option: -DPython_EXECUTABLE=${PROJECT_ROOT}/.venv/bin/python
  • If you need Conan, use the preamble to ensure Python/nanobind are discovered first, then the Conan provider:
    • CMake option: -DCMAKE_PROJECT_TOP_LEVEL_INCLUDES=${PROJECT_ROOT}/conan_preamble.cmake;${PROJECT_ROOT}/conan_provider.cmake
  • Select the _hgraph target to build the extension.

Troubleshooting

  • Nanobind not found / Python ordering in CMake:
    • Pass -DPython_EXECUTABLE=... (or -DPython3_EXECUTABLE=...) and, if using Conan, use the conan_preamble.cmake before conan_provider.cmake.
  • I also find it helpful to perform an uv sync with at least --all-groups before setting up the cmake.
