Vumi2

Vumi, but with Python 3 and Trio async

Currently under development.

• To address router
• HTTP RPC USSD transport
• SMPP SMS transport

Development

This project uses poetry for packaging and dependancy management, so install that first.

Ensure you're also running at least python 3.11, python --version.

Then you can install the dependencies

~ poetry install

You will also need an AMQP broker (eg. RabbitMQ) installed and running to be able to run a local worker, or to run the local tests.

To run a local worker, there is the vumi2 command. First make sure you're in the virtual environment where the project is installed

~ poetry shell

Then you can run a local worker using the vumi2 command, eg.

~ vumi2 worker vumi2.routers.ToAddressRouter

To run the autoformatting and linting, run

~ ruff format && ruff check && mypy --install-types

For the test runner, we use pytest:

~ pytest

Generating documentation

This project uses sphinx to generate the documentation. To build, run

~ cd docs
~ make html

The built documentation will be in docs/_build/html

Editor configuration

If you'd like your editor to handle linting and/or formatting for you, here's how to set it up.

Visual Studio Code

1. Install the Python and Ruff extensions
2. In settings, check the "Python > Linting: Mypy Enabled" box
3. In settings, set the "Python > Formatting: Provider" to "black" (apparently "ruff format" isn't supported by the Python extension yet and "black" is probably close enough)
4. If you want to have formatting automatically apply, in settings, check the "Editor: Format On Save" checkbox

Alternatively, add the following to your settings.json:

{
    "python.linting.mypyEnabled": true,
    "python.formatting.provider": "black",
    "editor.formatOnSave": true,
}

Release process

To release a new version, follow these steps:

1. Make sure all relevant PRs are merged and that all necessary QA testing is complete
2. Make sure release notes are up to date and accurate
3. In one commit on the main branch:
   • Update the version number in pyproject.toml to the release version
   • Replace the UNRELEASED header in CHANGELOG.md with the release version and date
4. Tag the release commit with the release version (for example, v0.2.1 for version 0.2.1)
5. Push the release commit and tag
6. In one commit on the main branch:
   • Update the version number in pyproject.toml to the next pre-release version
   • Add a new UNRELEASED header in CHANGELOG.md
7. Push the post-release commit
