Installation

PokeLance targets Python 3.10+ and ships with full inline type hints, so your type checker (ty, pyright, mypy) picks up the API surface immediately after install.

Requirements

  • Python >=3.10
  • niquests for modern sync and async HTTP (with HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support)
  • attrs for structured models
  • aiofiles for non-blocking disk cache I/O

PokeLance keeps its runtime footprint minimal so it drops cleanly into bots, web services, and scripts.

Install from PyPI

uv add pokelance

python -m pip install -U pokelance

poetry add pokelance

Installing from source

If you want the latest development version:

uv add git+https://github.com/FallenDeity/PokeLance.git

python -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/FallenDeity/PokeLance.git

git clone https://github.com/FallenDeity/PokeLance.git
cd PokeLance
uv sync --all-groups

Verifying the install

Verify that PokeLance is installed properly by checking its version:

import pokelance

print(f"PokeLance version: {pokelance.__version__}")

PokeLance version: 1.0.0b1

If that outputs a version string, you're ready for the Quickstart.
