plotly-stubs 0.1.3

Type stubs for plotly.

plotly-stubs

plotly-stubs is a stub-only package containing static type annotations for plotly.

Installation

pip install plotly-stubs

Usage

See plotly-stubs's documentation.

Note: Only very basic documentation as per now.

Development Setup

1. Install uv

This project uses uv as package manager. If you haven't already, install uv, preferably using it's "Standalone installer" method:
..on Windows:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

..on MacOS and Linux:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

(see docs.astral.sh/uv for all / alternative installation methods.)

Once installed, you can update uv to its latest version, anytime, by running:

uv self update

2. Clone the repository

Clone the plotly-stubs repository into your local development directory:

git clone https://github.com/ClaasRostock/plotly-stubs path/to/your/dev/plotly-stubs

Change into the project directory after cloning:

cd plotly-stubs

3. Install dependencies

Run uv sync -U to create a virtual environment and install all project dependencies into it:

uv sync -U

Note: Using --no-dev will omit installing development dependencies.

Explanation: The -U option stands for --update. It forces uv to fetch and install the latest versions of all dependencies, ensuring that your environment is up-to-date.

Note: uv will create a new virtual environment called .venv in the project root directory when running uv sync -U the first time. Optionally, you can create your own virtual environment using e.g. uv venv, before running uv sync -U.

4. (Optional) Activate the virtual environment

When using uv, there is in almost all cases no longer a need to manually activate the virtual environment.
uv will find the .venv virtual environment in the working directory or any parent directory, and activate it on the fly whenever you run a command via uv inside your project folder structure:

uv run <command>

However, you still can manually activate the virtual environment if needed. When developing in an IDE, for instance, this can in some cases be necessary depending on your IDE settings. To manually activate the virtual environment, run one of the "known" legacy commands:
..on Windows:

.venv\Scripts\activate.bat

..on Linux:

source .venv/bin/activate

5. Install pre-commit hooks

The .pre-commit-config.yaml file in the project root directory contains a configuration for pre-commit hooks. To install the pre-commit hooks defined therein in your local git repository, run:

uv run pre-commit install

All pre-commit hooks configured in .pre-commit-config.yaml will now run each time you commit changes.

pre-commit can also manually be invoked, at anytime, using:

uv run pre-commit run --all-files

To skip the pre-commit validation on commits (e.g. when intentionally committing broken code), run:

uv run git commit -m <MSG> --no-verify

To update the hooks configured in .pre-commit-config.yaml to their newest versions, run:

uv run pre-commit autoupdate

6. Test that the installation works

To test that the installation works, run pytest in the project root folder:

uv run pytest
