        =====
        PyOTA
        =====
        This is the official Python library for the IOTA Core.
        
        It implements both the `official API`_, as well as newly-proposed functionality
        (such as signing, bundles, utilities and conversion).

        ============
        Dependencies
        ============
        PyOTA is compatible with Python 3.7 and 3.6.
        
        =============
        Install PyOTA
        =============
        To install the latest version::
        
          pip install pyota
        
        Optional C Extension
        ====================
        PyOTA has an optional C extension that improves the performance of its
        cryptography features significantly (speedups of **60x** are common!).
        
        To install this extension, use the following command::
        
           pip install pyota[ccurl]
        
        Optional Local Pow
        ==================
        To perform proof-of-work locally without relying on a node,
        you can install an extension module called `PyOTA-PoW`_ .
        
        Specifiy the ``local_pow=True`` argument when creating an
        api instance, that will redirect all ``attach_to_tangle``
        API calls to an interface function in the ``pow`` package.
        
        To install this extension, use the following command::
        
           pip install pyota[pow]
        
        Alternativley you can take a look on the repository
        `Ccurl.interface.py`_  to install Pyota-PoW.
        Follow the steps depicted in the repo's README file.
        
        Installing from Source
        ======================
        
        #. `Create virtualenv`_ (recommended, but not required).
        #. ``git clone https://github.com/iotaledger/iota.py.git``
        #. ``pip install -e .``
        
        Running Unit Tests
        ------------------
        To run unit tests after installing from source::
        
          python setup.py test
        
        PyOTA is also compatible with `tox`_, which will run the unit tests in different
        virtual environments (one for each supported version of Python).
        
        To run the unit tests, it is recommended that you use the ``-p`` argument.
        This speeds up the tests by running them in parallel.
        
        Install PyOTA with the ``test-runner`` extra to set up the necessary
        dependencies, and then you can run the tests with the ``tox`` command::
        
          pip install -e .[test-runner]
          tox -v -p all
        
        =============
        Documentation
        =============
        PyOTA's documentation is available on `ReadTheDocs`_.
        
        If you are installing from source (see above), you
        can also build the documentation locally:
        
        #. Install extra dependencies (you only have to do this once)::
        
              pip install .[docs-builder]
        
           .. tip::
        
              To install the CCurl extension and the documentation builder tools
              together, use the following command::
        
                 pip install .[ccurl,docs-builder]
        
        #. Switch to the ``docs`` directory::
        
              cd docs
        
        #. Build the documentation::
        
              make html
