An extension module to call hived cpp source code from Python and JavaScript.

You need to install protobuf compiler first:

apt install protobuf-compiler

First, we need to have installed poetry. To do that, simply type:

curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 - --version 1.6.1

Wax uses dedicated version of boost library (it is statically built to reduce Python packages dependencies). Please use a CI base image defined here: https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/wax/-/blob/develop/python/docker/Dockerfile.ci?ref_type=heads as your build environment. Prebuilt image can be also retrieved from Gitlab container registry: https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/wax/container_registry/556

In order to build wax python package, one need to simply type from root project directory:

./python/scripts/build_wax.sh

This script will generate wheel file using virtual environment of poetry which will be saved in ./dist directory.

It is recomended to create python virtual env, and install wax package it there, for example:

python3 -m venv venv
source ./venv/bin/activate

Now in order to install wax module to python, one need to type.

python3 -m pip install ./dist/CREATED-WAX-WHEEL.whl (for example wax-0.0.0-cp310-cp310-manylinux_2_35_x86_64.whl)

You can always take prebuilt PyPI package also pushed to Gitlab package registry - here is for example some develop related version: 0.0.3a2.dev131+bb99c4e: https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/wax/-/packages/3474

Packages produced for Git protected tags will be versioned according to tag names.

All of the required TypeScript-related information is available in the npm.ts.md file
