Extension for pytket, providing translation to and from the Qiskit framework
Project description
pytket-qiskit
Pytket is a python module for interfacing with tket, a quantum computing toolkit and optimising compiler developed by Quantinuum.
pytket-qiskit
is an extension to pytket
that allows pytket
circuits to be
run on IBM backends and simulators, as well as conversion to and from Qiskit
representations.
Some useful links:
Getting started
pytket-qiskit
is available for Python 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12, on Linux, MacOS
and Windows. To install, run:
pip install pytket-qiskit
This will install pytket
if it isn't already installed, and add new classes
and methods into the pytket.extensions
namespace.
Bugs, support and feature requests
Please file bugs and feature requests on the Github issue tracker.

Development
To install an extension in editable mode, simply change to its subdirectory
within the modules
directory, and run:
pip install -e .
Contributing
Pull requests are welcome. To make a PR, first fork the repo, make your proposed
changes on the main
branch, and open a PR from your fork. If it passes
tests and is accepted after review, it will be merged in.
Code style
Formatting
All code should be formatted using black, with default options. This is checked on the CI. The CI is currently using version 20.8b1.
Type annotation
On the CI, mypy is used as a static
type checker and all submissions must pass its checks. You should therefore run
mypy
locally on any changed files before submitting a PR. Because of the way
extension modules embed themselves into the pytket
namespace this is a little
complicated, but it should be sufficient to run the script modules/mypy-check
(passing as a single argument the root directory of the module to test). The
script requires mypy
0.800 or above.
Linting
We use pylint on the CI to check compliance
with a set of style requirements (listed in .pylintrc
). You should run
pylint
over any changed files before submitting a PR, to catch any issues.
Tests
To run the tests for a module:
cd
into that module'stests
directory;- ensure you have installed
pytest
,hypothesis
, and any modules listed in thetest-requirements.txt
file (all viapip
); - run
pytest
.
When adding a new feature, please add a test for it. When fixing a bug, please add a test that demonstrates the fix.
