Overview#

The project’s repository is structured in a way that allows for easy navigation and understanding of its components. Here are some key concepts to help you get started:

  • Source Structure

    The source code uses the src/ directory layout, which is a common practice in Python projects. This structure helps to avoid issues with module imports and makes it clear which files are part of the package.

  • Test Suite

    The test suite is located in the tests/ directory. It contains unit tests to ensure the quality and functionality of the code. The tests are organized in a way that mirrors the source structure, making it easier to find and run tests related to specific modules.

  • pyproject.toml

    The pyproject.toml file is used to define the project’s metadata, dependencies, and build system requirements. It is a standardized way to configure Python projects and is used by tools such as uv. The uv create a lock file uv.lock based on the dependencies defined in pyproject.toml. This lock file ensures that the same versions of dependencies are used across different environments, providing consistency and reliability.

  • uv

    The project uses uv as the primary command-line interface for managing the development environment, running tests, and building documentation. It provides a consistent way to interact with the project and its components. Its configuration is defined in the uv.toml file.

  • Documentation

    The documentation is built using reStructuredText and Sphinx. The source files for the documentation are located in the docs/ directory. The documentation targets users and developers, providing information on how to use the project, its features, and how to change it.
