All requirements are documented in the cargo.toml and pyproject.toml files.
Building the project requires both the Rust compiler and the Python interpreter.
At time of writing, we used the following versions:
- Rust 1.84.0
- Python 3.12.8
Important
Post-publication notice: We have pinned the maximum supported Python version to 3.12 to ensure that the released code is compatible with the published paper. We currently see no issues in updating the Python version and packages to later ones, but responsibility of correctness lies with the user.
To this end, we've updated the project to work better with uv, to reduce friction in getting started with the project.
Finally, we used cargo-msrv to find the minimum supported Rust version, which is 1.74.1.
To install the project, clone the repository, open a terminal in the project directory and run the following command:
pip install .Warning
We highly recommend using a virtual environment to avoid conflicts with other projects.
We provide a set of CLI commands to interact with the main functionalities of the project.
Each command will start with evd followed by the subcommand.
Note that subcommands can have their own subcommands.
To see the list of available commands, run:
evd --helpThis will also work for subcommands:
evd subcommand --helpWe include trogon integration to run the commands in a TUI environment.
evd tuiWarning
trogon is a fairly experimental library and may not work as expected.
