Lectric client

Project description

# Lectric Software Development Kit (SDK)

Programmatic access to the lectric vector database service.

## Installation

The SDK is exposed as a simple python package. There are two main ways it can be installed.

## Developers

Clone the git repo and install from source:

First clone the repo from [here](https://dev.azure.com/msresearch/WatchFor/_git/lectric), then ` cd lectric/client python -m pip install -U -r requirements-dev.txt python setup.py install `

### Generating the client

pipx install openapi-python-client –include-deps.

This will create the openapi-python-client.exe executable.

### Running the tests

In order to run the client (SDK) tests a server running on http://localhost:8000, with an appropriate lectric_config.yaml exported as an environment variable.

` cd tests python -m pytest -s . `

### Modifying the SDK

The main wrapper to the auto-generated client is located within lectric/lectric_client.py. To refresh/recreate the auto-generated client library. Make sure to run the uvicorn fastapi sever from at port 8000: ` uvicorn main:app --reload `

,then generate the client.

` ./generate.sh `

## General Users

We highly recommend installing Lectric within a virtual environment to avoid package versioning mismatches. For Python 3.6+

### Mac/Linux

` python -m venv lectric-env source lectric-env/Scripts/activate `

### Windows

` python -m venv lectric-env ./lectric-env/Scripts/Activate.ps1 `

Then install from our WatchFor PyPI registry as follows:

` pip install --index-url https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/watchfor/WatchForTools/_packaging/w4Tools/pypi/simple/ watchfor-lectric-sdk==<VERSION> `

Where <VERSION> is your desired version (at the time of edit 0.0.3).

## Checking Installation

Simply run:

` import lectric print(lectric.version()) # Should return a string with the version you installed `

## Documentation

HTML docs are maintained within docs/build/html. To review docs open index.html within any browser.

## Building the docs

Install the sphinx on the system as per the instructions [here](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/installation.html). A few examples are: Windows: choco install sphinx Ubuntu: apt-get install python3-sphinx This should put sphinx-build on the path.

Then within docs run make html, for html docs.
