Development¶

Environment setup¶

Typically on Ubuntu (but should work on Windows).

1. Install virtual environment¶

Using qgis-venv-creator (see this article) through pipx (sudo apt install pipx):

pipx run qgis-venv-creator

Old school way:

# create virtual environment linking to system packages (for pyqgis)
python3 -m venv .venv --system-site-packages
source .venv/bin/activate

2. Install development dependencies¶

# bump dependencies inside venv
python -m pip install -U pip
python -m pip install -U -r requirements/development.txt

# install git hooks (pre-commit)
pre-commit install
