Development
Create a virtual environment and activate it:
python -m venv venv
. ./venv/bin/activate
Install the necessary packages:
python -m pip install .
To run the unit tests:
pytest
To run linter and automatically fix all errors:
black .
isort .
If any packages are missing, install them with:
pip install <PACKAGE_NAME>
For Windows users, there may be errors when installing packages, so these commands may be helpful:
Activate the virtual environment:
. .\venv\Scripts\activate
You may need to run the installs separately:
pip install -e .[tests]
pip install -e .[dev]
tantivy requires rust to be installed, so install it with conda, as it doesn't support windows installation:
pip install wheel
pip install cargo
conda install rust
pip install tantivy
To run the unit tests:
pytest
