Backward compatibility
In order to improve the ergonomics, the code may be re-factored and a few method calls may be re-designed. As a consequence, the backward compatibility of the library is not guaranteed. Therefore, the version of quetzal used for a project should be specified in its requirements.
Installation
https://pypi.org/project/quetzal-transport/
pip install quetzal-transport
Installation from sources
For Linux
uv
- Install uv (if not already installed)
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
- install dependencies (this will create a new virtualenv at
.venv/and fetch Python 3.12 if needed)
uv sync
- activate the env
source .venv/bin/activate
- (optional) add the env to ipykernel (to use in jupyter)
python -m ipykernel install --user --name=quetzal_env
poetry (alternative)
- You may need to set the default (or local) python version in the project
pyenv local 3.12
- install dependancies (this will create a new virtualenv)
poetry install
- activate the env
poetry shell
- (optional) add the env to ipykernel (to use in jupyter)
python -m ipykernel install --user --name=quetzal_env
For Windows
uv (recommended)
No prior installation of Python or uv is required — the batch file handles both. Open a command prompt and run the windows-install batch file
C:\users\you\path\to\quetzal> windows-install.bat
press enter to accept the default kernel name or enter a custom name
poetry (alternative)
Requires Anaconda 3 with Python 3.12. Run the poetry batch file instead:
C:\users\you\path\to\quetzal> windows-install-poetry.bat
press enter to accept the default kernel name or enter a custom name
If you are facing DLL or dependencies issues
Anaconda and Pip do not get along well, your Anaconda install may have been corrupted at some point.
- Remove your envs
- Uninstall Anaconda
- Delete your Python and Anaconda folders (users\you\Anaconda3, users\you\Appdata\Roaming\Python, ...etc)
- Install Anaconda
If you are facing SSL issues
pip config set global.trusted-host "pypi.org files.pythonhosted.org"
C:\users\you\path\to\quetzal> windows-install.bat
security warning: the host is added to pip.ini
Tests
to run unittest:
uv run python -W ignore -m unittest discover
Or with poetry:
poetry run python -W ignore -m unittest discover
Deploying
- change the version in pyproject.toml
[project]
name = "quetzal-transport"
version = "3.1.1"
- edit CHANGELOG.md with the changes
## [3.1.1] (2026-01-15)
## changes
* some changes
- create a tag matching the version (starting with v)
git tag -a v3.1.1 -m 'description'
- push the tag
git push origin v3.1.1
that's it. A Github action will
- build
- create a release
- update the package on pipy.
