Setting up development environment

This Python project is fully managed using the Poetry dependency manager. But also relies on the use of NodeJS for certain checks during development.

You need at least:

• Python 3.9+
• Poetry
• NodeJS 20+ (including NPM)

To install all packages, including all development requirements:

npm install
poetry install

As this repository uses the pre-commit framework, all changes are linted and tested with each commit. You can run all checks and tests manually, using the following command:

poetry run pre-commit run --all-files

To run just the Python tests:

poetry run pytest
