# Eth 2.0 Executable Python Spec (PySpec)
2019-05-06 15:30:32 +00:00
The executable Python spec is built from the Eth 2.0 specification,
2019-03-27 16:43:56 +00:00
complemented with the necessary helper functions for hashing, BLS, and more.
With this executable spec,
test-generators can easily create test-vectors for client implementations,
2019-05-06 15:30:32 +00:00
and the spec itself can be verified to be consistent and coherent through sanity tests implemented with pytest.

## Building
All the dynamic parts of the spec can be build at once with `make pyspec`.
Alternatively, you can build a sub-set of the pyspec: `make phase0`.
2019-05-06 15:30:32 +00:00
Or, to build a single file, specify the path, e.g. `make test_libs/pyspec/eth2spec/phase0/spec.py`.

## Py-tests
2019-05-06 15:30:32 +00:00
After building, you can install the dependencies for running the `pyspec` tests with `make install_test`.
2019-04-17 07:47:56 +00:00
These tests are not intended for client-consumption.
These tests are sanity tests, to verify if the spec itself is consistent.
### How to run tests
#### Automated
Run `make test` from the root of the specs repository (after running `make install_test` if have not before).
2019-04-17 07:47:56 +00:00
#### Manual
From within the `pyspec` folder:
Install dependencies:
```bash
python3 -m venv venv
. venv/bin/activate
2019-04-24 17:59:13 +00:00
pip3 install -r requirements-testing.txt
2019-04-17 07:47:56 +00:00
```
2019-05-06 15:30:32 +00:00
*Note*: Make sure to run `make -B pyspec` from the root of the specs repository,
2019-04-17 07:47:56 +00:00
to build the parts of the pyspec module derived from the markdown specs.
The `-B` flag may be helpful to force-overwrite the `pyspec` output after you made a change to the markdown source files.
2019-04-17 07:47:56 +00:00
Run the tests:
```
pytest --config=minimal eth2spec
2019-04-17 07:47:56 +00:00
```
Note the package-name, this is to locate the tests.
2019-04-17 07:47:56 +00:00
### How to view code coverage report
Run `make open_cov` from the root of the specs repository after running `make test` to open the html code coverage report.

## Contributing
2019-03-27 16:43:56 +00:00
Contributions are welcome, but consider implementing your idea as part of the spec itself first.
The pyspec is not a replacement.
