HSE Python Bindings

Heterogeneous-Memory Storage Engine bindings for Python.

Virtual Environment

To build hse-python, it may be advantageous to use a Python virtual environment. Use the following commands to set one up:

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Building

hse-python is built using the Meson build system. In the event HSE is not visible to the hse-python build system, HSE will be fetched and built alongside hse-python.

meson setup build
meson compile -C build

Check the output of meson configure build or meson_options.txt for various build options.

Installation

From PyPI

python3 -m pip install hse2

From Build

The default install directory is /opt/hse. This can be overridden by configuring the build with either -Dprefix=$prefix or --prefix=$prefix.

meson install -C build
