Installation

BPM supports multiple setup paths. Choose one that fits your workflow.

Pip

• User install (latest published):

  python -m pip install bpm-cli
  

• From source (editable) while hacking on BPM:

  git clone https://github.com/your-org/BPM.git
  cd BPM
  python -m pip install -e .
  

Pixi (recommended for development)

pixi install           # create env with runtime deps
pixi run test          # run tests
pixi run lint          # ruff
pixi run fmt           # black

Conda/Mamba

• Quick environment with runtime deps:

  mamba create -n bpm -c conda-forge python>=3.10 typer jinja2 pyyaml rich
  mamba activate bpm
  

• Or use the provided file:

  mamba env create -f environment.yml
  conda activate bpm
  

Then install BPM itself (from PyPI or local source):

python -m pip install bpm-cli   # from PyPI
# or
python -m pip install -e .      # from source checkout

Notes

• Python 3.10 or newer is required.
• rich enhances table output; if absent, BPM falls back to plain text.
• For isolated CLI installs, pipx install bpm-cli also works (command is still bpm).
