        Python SCALE Codec Library
        
        ## Description
        Most of the data that the Substrate RPCs output is encoded with the SCALE Codec. This codec is used by the Substrate nodes' internal runtime. In order to get to meaningful data this data will need to be decoded. The Python SCALE Codec Library will specialize in this task.
        
        ## Documentation
        https://polkascan.github.io/py-scale-codec/
        
        ## Installation
        ```bash
        pip install scalecodec
        ```
        
        ## Examples
        
        Decode a SCALE-encoded Compact\<Balance\> 
        
        ```python
        RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(load_type_registry_preset("default"))
        RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(load_type_registry_preset("kusama"))
        obj = ScaleDecoder.get_decoder_class('Compact<Balance>', ScaleBytes("0x130080cd103d71bc22"))
        obj.decode()
        print(obj.value)
        ```
        
        Add custom types to type registry
        
        ```python
        RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(load_type_registry_preset("default"))
        
        custom_types = {
            "types": {
                "MyCustomType": "u32",
                "CustomNextAuthority": {
                  "type": "struct",
                  "type_mapping": [
                     ["AuthorityId", "AuthorityId"],
                     ["weight", "AuthorityWeight"]
                  ]
                }
            }   
        }
        
        RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(custom_types)
        ```
        
        Or from a custom JSON file
        
        ```python
        RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(load_type_registry_preset("default"))
        RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(load_type_registry_file("/path/to/type_registry.json"))
        ```
