Description:

archspec 0.2.4

Archspec (Python bindings)



Archspec aims at providing a standard set of human-understandable labels for
various aspects of a system architecture like CPU, network fabrics, etc. and
APIs to detect, query and compare them.
This project grew out of Spack and is currently under
active development. At present it supports APIs to detect and model
compatibility relationships among different CPU microarchitectures.
Getting started with development
The archspec Python package needs poetry to
be installed from VCS sources. The preferred method to install it is via
its custom installer outside of any virtual environment:
curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 -

You can refer to Poetry's documentation
for further details or for other methods to install this tool. You'll also need tox
to run unit test:
pip install --user tox

Finally, you'll need to clone the repository:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/archspec/archspec.git

Running unit tests
Once you have your environment ready you can run archspec unit tests
using tox from the root of the repository:
$ tox

py27: commands succeeded
py35: commands succeeded
py36: commands succeeded
py37: commands succeeded

pylint: commands succeeded

congratulations :)
