toolchain-lite
tcl: add Python packages to a project from the command line, no Gradle project needed.
toolchain-lite is the command-line side of toolchain, the
Gradle plugin that declares the Python half of a Kotlin Multiplatform app. tcl gives Python users
the same dependency step without a Gradle build.
Install
uv tool install toolchain-lite # puts tcl on PATH
tcl --help
uvx --from toolchain-lite tcl --version # or run it without installing
The wheel carries tcl as a native binary (GraalVM Native Image), one wheel per platform: macOS 11+
on Apple silicon, Linux x86_64 and aarch64 (glibc), Windows x86_64. There is no source distribution:
building needs a JDK and GraalVM.
uv is needed at run time. When none is on PATH, tcl downloads one into ~/.pypackpack/uv.
Use
mkdir myapp && cd myapp
tcl install six # creates pyproject.toml (uv init --bare) if there is none, then adds six
tcl install <package> finds the nearest pyproject.toml at or above the current directory, creates
one if there is none, and adds the package with uv. It exits 0 on success and 1 with a message
otherwise.
Status
tcl install is implemented and tested. Everything else in the plan for tcl
(issue #1) is not built yet.
