Common Maintenance Tasks

• Installing dependencies:

  • For fresh environments or setting up the project for the first time.
    • Install uv using pip or pipx. The last one is more recommended to its global isolation property.
      • pipx install uv
  • Create virtual environment using uv.
    • uv venv
    • If you need to create the venv based on a specific python you can use:
      • uv venv --python python3.11
  • Install dependencies using uv.
    • uv sync

• Add dependencies:

  • uv add <package-name>

• Removing dependencies:

  • uv remove <package-name>

• Updating version of the project:

  • Change the version into the pyproject.toml.
  • It uses semantic versioning: '<patch/minor/major>`

• Running tests:

  • python -m unittest discover test_mw_utils

• Maintaining a changelog:

  • Update CHANGELOG.md with each release

• Tagging the release:

  • git tag v<new-version>

• Building the package:

  • This will create a dist directory with the built package.
  • uv build

• Publishing to PyPI:

  • uv publish --repository pypi,
  • or twine upload dist/*.
