Installation

Prerequisites

Before installing the module (or any module for that matter) consider creating a virtual environment for your project. This is generally preferred over installing modules and dependencies globally:

cd <project-root>
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

Alternatively, using uv:

uv venv

Installation from PyPI

The recommended way is to install the lastest distribution package directly from the Python Package Index (PyPI). You can either add pyc8y as a dependency to your project using pyproject.toml, requirements.txt or just install it manually:

pip install pyc8y  #  when using venv/pip
uv add pyc8y       # when using uv

Manual installation

Alternatively, you can clone the repository. The module sources can be used directly within your Python 3 project. Simply copy the src/pyc8y folder to your sources root and install the requirements by running the following command:

pip3 install src/pyc8y

If the src folder is in your sources root folder all imports should work right away. Alternatively you can add pyc8y to your PYHTONPATH:

export PYTHONPATH=<project-root>/src/pyc8y; $PYTHONPATH
