Installation

Requirements

  • Python 3 (any supported version) is required.

  • C compiler and Python development headers are required on all platforms, as Jsify includes a C extension and is usually built from source during installation. - Linux: GCC and Python dev headers (build-essential python3-dev on Debian/Ubuntu) - Windows: Microsoft Visual Studio Build Tools (Desktop development with C++) - macOS: Xcode command line tools (xcode-select –install)

  • pip and setuptools must be installed and up to date.

Quick Install

Install the latest release from PyPI (pip will build the C extension automatically):

pip install jsify

Troubleshooting

If you see errors like Failed building wheel for jsify or Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement jsify, check that:

  • You have Python 3.x (check with python --version)

  • Your C compiler and Python development headers are installed and properly configured for your OS

  • pip and setuptools are up to date:

    python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools

  • On Windows, use the “x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS” for installation.

Notes

  • Jsify will be built and installed in a single step using pip.

  • No manual build steps are needed for most users, but you must have the appropriate build environment for your platform.
