nilql

Library for working with encrypted data within nilDB queries and replies.

Installation and Usage

The library can be imported in the usual ways:

import nilql
from nilql import *

Development

All installation and development dependencies are fully specified in pyproject.toml. The project.optional-dependencies object is used to specify optional requirements for various development tasks. This makes it possible to specify additional options (such as docs, lint, and so on) when performing installation using pip:

python -m pip install ".[docs,lint]"

Documentation

The documentation can be generated automatically from the source files using Sphinx:

python -m pip install ".[docs]"
cd docs
sphinx-apidoc -f -E --templatedir=_templates -o _source .. && make html

Testing and Conventions

All unit tests are executed and their coverage is measured when using pytest (see the pyproject.toml file for configuration details):

python -m pip install ".[test]"
python -m pytest

The subset of the unit tests included in the module itself and can be executed using doctest:

python src/nilql/nilql.py -v

Style conventions are enforced using Pylint:

python -m pip install ".[lint]"
python -m pylint src/nilql test/test_nilql.py
