Use uv on reComputer
Introduction
This wiki explains how to use the uv on reComputer box. uv is a fast, modern, and lightweight package manager and resolver for Python. It is designed to be a drop-in replacement for traditional Python package management tools like pip
and pip-tools
, offering significant improvements in speed, efficiency, and usability.

Prepare software
update the system:
sudo date -s "$(wget -qSO- --max-redirect=0 google.com 2>&1 | grep Date: | cut -d' ' -f5-8)Z"
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
Install uv
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
Use uv
Init the project
Here, we use uv_test
as an example to demonstrate the usage of uv
.
Note: Please make different project name make sure it is different from any package on PyPI.
uv init uv_test --package
cd uv_test
Check the structure of the project
ls -la
tree

Creat a python environment
Here you can creat a python environmet
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Add dependencies
Use numpy
to build funcation:
uv add numpy
Creat funcation
Use NumPy to write an add
function on add.py
as an example:
add.py
import numpy as np
def add(arr1: np.ndarray, arr2: np.ndarray) -> np.ndarray:
"""
Adds two NumPy arrays element-wise.
Parameters:
arr1 (np.ndarray): The first input array.
arr2 (np.ndarray): The second input array.
Returns:
np.ndarray: The element-wise sum of arr1 and arr2.
Raises:
ValueError: If the input arrays have different shapes and cannot be broadcasted.
"""
# Ensure that both arrays have compatible shapes for element-wise addition
try:
result = np.add(arr1, arr2)
except ValueError:
raise ValueError("Input arrays have incompatible shapes for element-wise addition.")
return result
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Example usage
arr1 = [1, 2, 3]
arr2 = [4, 5, 6]
print("Result of addition:", add(arr1, arr2))
The results are as follows:

Build the package
To build the project into a usable .whl
file, modify the toml
file as follow:
Build the package:
uv build
ls -a
The results are as follows:

Test the package
Install the package as below:
uv pip install dist/uv_test-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl

Use python
script to test the packag:
add.py
from uv_test.add import add
if __name__ == "__main__":
arr1 = [1, 2, 3]
arr2 = [4, 5, 6]
print("Result of addition:", add(arr1, arr2))
Push the package to PyPi
If you don't have a PyPI account, please register an account and get creat token.
uv publish
The result is like as below, and input your token:

Result
Finally, you can see your uploaded project on PyPI.
