pytarallo

Python API for the T.A.R.A.L.L.O. Inventory System

Development instructions

1. Setting up the environment

Create a python3 virtual environment

python3 -m venv venv

or using virtualenv

virtualenv -p python3 venv

2. Add some environment variables

Create a file named .env (a dot followed by the word "env") with this content:

export TARALLO_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8080
export TARALLO_TOKEN=yoLeCHmEhNNseN0BlG0s3A:ksfPYziGg7ebj0goT0Zc7pbmQEIYvZpRTIkwuscAM_k

Or, as an alternative, you can add these lines to PyCharm (or whatever other IDE you're using) configuration for the test script launcher, they are just environment variables.

The token is the default one for the dev enviroment (see T.A.R.A.L.L.O. developement, but you can generate different ones from T.A.R.A.L.L.O. obviously.

Then activate the virtualenv:

source venv/bin/activate

3. Dependecies

Install dependencies for developement

pip install -e ".[dev]"

or for production only

pip install -e .

4. Run tests

To run tests type

nosetests -v

pytarallo on PyPI

You may also get pytarallo through PyPI by using the command pip install pytarallo

For devs, to publish this repo on PyPI

Automatic method

1. Click here (or on the right of this page, on "Releases", then "Draft a new release").
2. Enter the version tag with format "vX.Y.Z" without double quotes.
3. Optionally enter a release title and a release description.
4. You can follow the build and release process in the Actions tab at the top.

⚠️ Wait for the automatic tests that run after pushing a new commit to complete succesfully before releasing a broken library on PyPI.

Manual method - DEPRECATED

1. Clone the repo locally

   git clone https://github.com/WEEE-Open/pytarallo && cd pytarallo

2. Update the setup.py so that it contains the correct version and other info (including dependencies).
   You should update at least version and download_url.

   vim setup.py

3. Enter in the virtual environment

   source venv/bin/activate

4. Install required packages for publishing on PyPI

   pip install setuptools wheel twine

5. Remove old builds

   rm dist/*

6. Build the .tar.gz package

   python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel

7. Upload the output packages to PyPI:

   twine upload dist/*

   This last step requires:

   • you having an account on pypi.org
   • your account being owner or maintainer of the pytarallo package
   • you entering your username and password when prompted by twine
