The Python SDK for Speckle

Speckle | specklepy 🐍

Speckle is the first AEC data hub that connects with your favorite AEC tools. Speckle exists to overcome the challenges of working in a fragmented industry where communication, creative workflows, and the exchange of data are often hindered by siloed software and processes. It is here to make the industry better.

Developing & Debugging

Installation

This project uses uv for dependency management, make sure you follow the official docs to get it.

To create a new virtual environment with uv run $ uv venv and follow the instructions on the screen to activate the virtual environment. To bootstrap the project environment run $ uv sync. This will install both the package and dev dependencies.

To execute any python script run $ uv run python my_script.py

Alternatively you may roll your own virtual-env with either venv, virtualenv, pyenv-virtualenv etc. Uv will play along an recognize if it is invoked from inside a virtual environment.

Style guide

All our repo wide styling linting and other rules are checked and enforced by pre-commit, which is included in the dev dependencies. It is recommended to set up pre-commit after installing the dependencies by running $ pre-commit install. Commiting code that doesn't adhere to the given rules, will fail the checks in our CI system.

Local Data Paths

It may be helpful to know where the local accounts and object cache dbs are stored. Depending on on your OS, you can find the dbs at:

• Windows: APPDATA or <USER>\AppData\Roaming\Speckle
• Linux: $XDG_DATA_HOME or by default ~/.local/share/Speckle
• Mac: ~/.config/Speckle
