REST

None

• Available as a package via pip and conda as precompiled C extension with stub files for improved Intellisense functions and source code for easier debugging of the source code. To the installation.

• Excessively tested on Linux, Mac and Windows

If you like the project, please it on GitHub!

Installation and Upgrade

The module requires Python 3.9 and runs smoothly up to and including Python 3.14.

PyPy wheels are available for all supported Python versions.

The current dependencies are listed here.

If you run into errors during the installation take a look here.

Packages are created automatically with GitHub Actions

When a new release is created, the Build and Publish GH+PyPi workflow spins up virtual Windows/Linux/Mac runners, compiles the Cython extensions, builds the wheels and publishes them on GitHub and PyPI. The conda-forge feedstock conda-forge/unicorn-fy-feedstock picks up the new PyPI release automatically and builds the Conda packages on its own infrastructure. This is a transparent method that makes it possible to trace the source code behind a compilation.

A Cython binary, PyPy or source code based CPython wheel of the latest version with pip from PyPI

Our Cython and PyPy Wheels are available on PyPI, these wheels offer significant advantages for Python developers:

• Performance Boost with Cython Wheels: Cython is a programming language that supplements Python with static typing and C-level performance. By compiling Python code into C, Cython Wheels can significantly enhance the execution speed of Python code, especially in computationally intensive tasks. This means faster runtimes and more efficient processing for users of our package.

• PyPy Wheels for Enhanced Efficiency: PyPy is an alternative Python interpreter known for its speed and efficiency. It uses Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation, which can dramatically improve the performance of Python code. Our PyPy Wheels are tailored for compatibility with PyPy, allowing users to leverage this speed advantage seamlessly.

Both Cython and PyPy Wheels on PyPI make the installation process simpler and more straightforward. They ensure that you get the optimized version of our package with minimal setup, allowing you to focus on development rather than configuration.

On Raspberry Pi and other architectures for which there are no pre-compiled versions, the package can still be installed with PIP. PIP then compiles the package locally on the target system during installation. Please be patient, this may take some time!
