User guide

PyScript Flow

The command line tool is an essential way of fostering a PyScript development "flow". This is an early draft of what such a flow might be, and we welcome feedback, ideas and constructive feedback as we work towards a proper release. Since this is alpha software, anything might (and probably will) change, thanks to your feedback. At this stage, we want to solidify the "flow" and commands into a beta release we can share more publicly.

The Python module and remote API to which it calls will also develop as we hone Anaconda's offering to the PyScript community and help tool authors integrate such functionality into their code (such as code editors, CI integrations and so on).

Installation

To get started, you can install the pyscript-dot-com-cli package via pip:

$ pip install pyscript-dot-com-cli
$ pscript
$ pyscript

 Usage: pyscript [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

 Command Line Interface for PyScript. Run `pyscript setup` to setup the CLI interactively.

This will also install the base pyscript cli package for you.

Setting up the CLI

Once you have the CLI installed, log in to pyscript.com. To help with this, you can run the command pyscript setup and go through the setup process, which will prompt you for various details so that you can get up and running.

$ pyscript setup
...
Let's get your CLI setup with Pyscript.com, do you already have an account? [y/N]:

Create a new PyScript project

$ pyscript create demo-project
App description: This is a human-readable description of the project.
Author name: Nicholas H.Tollervey
Author email: ntollervey@anaconda.com
$ cd demo-project
$ ls
index.html    main.py       pyscript.toml

The new project is instantiated with three files:

• index.html (containing all the basic scaffolding code for "Hello World!"),
• main.py (a simple Python script that prints "Hello World!"),
• pyscript.toml (containing project metadata).

Edit index.html or main.py to get going.

See your work locally via:

$ pyscript run
Serving from ~/demo-project at port 8000. To stop, press Ctrl+C.

Upload a project to pyscript.com

After making some changes to your project, you can run the command:

$ pyscript upload
