Pythonny Quest

Quickstart

On Python >= 3.11 you can just pip install pythonny-quest and then launch your journey with the pyquest command. This should give you an iPython-like console with some hints in comment lines above the prompt.

Contributing

If you want to contribute or modify the source code, make sure you have uv installed.

Install uv

If you do not have uv installed, you can use curl or wget within git-bash:

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

OR

wget -qO- https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

You may need to relaunch your git-bash terminal before it will recognize your new uv command line command.

Install pythonny-quest (pyquest)

Download the git repository:

git clone git@gitlab.com:hobs/pythonny-quest
cd pythonny-quest

Create and activate a Python 3.12 virtual environment within the pythonny-quest/ folder:

uv venv -p 3.12
source .venv/bin/activate

Install pythonny-quest within your virtual environment:

uv pip install --editable .

Now whenever you run the pyquest command, you will be running the latest source code that you have edited within src/pyquest/shell.py starting with the main() function there.
