Speckle | specklepy 🐍
Speckle is the first AEC data hub that connects with your favorite AEC tools. Speckle exists to overcome the challenges of working in a fragmented industry where communication, creative workflows, and the exchange of data are often hindered by siloed software and processes. It is here to make the industry better.

Developing & Debugging
Installation
This project uses python-poetry for dependency management, make sure you follow the official docs to get poetry.
To bootstrap the project environment run $ poetry install
. This will create a new virtual-env for the project and install both the package and dev dependencies.
If this is your first time using poetry and you're used to creating your venvs within the project directory, run poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true
to configure poetry to do the same.
To execute any python script run $ poetry run python my_script.py
Alternatively you may roll your own virtual-env with either venv, virtualenv, pyenv-virtualenv etc. Poetry will play along an recognize if it is invoked from inside a virtual environment.
Style guide
All our repo wide styling linting and other rules are checked and enforced by pre-commit
, which is included in the dev dependencies.
It is recommended to set up pre-commit
after installing the dependencies by running $ pre-commit install
.
Commiting code that doesn't adhere to the given rules, will fail the checks in our CI system.
