Build notes

The first build step is to set up a Python environment (see environment.yml for a conda install, and refer to requirements.txt for a definitive but overly strict list of "dependencies"). The second build step uses meson-python to compile and link the C++ source to generate a Python-importable executable, and (optionally) deploy in the usual way as a Python package within that environment.

First step: having cloned the repo, enter the root directory; don't try to build from the src/ directory.

Second step: build and deploy as a Python package:

rm -rf build; pip install .

or just build and not deploy:

rm -rf build; meson setup build; meson compile -C build   

Then, test your build/deployment using the Python script and Jupyter notebook in tests/. See the README there for more details.

If you choose to build the lvn package and subsequently use it in-place, without deployment, you will need something like the following in all your Python scripts:

import sys, os
sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(os.path.pardir, "build"))

Here, the assumption is you're running the script from a directory parallel with build/, such as in tests/.
