# Proton VPN Core API
The `proton-vpn-core-api` acts as a facade to the other Proton VPN components,
exposing a uniform API to the available Proton VPN services.
## Development
Even though our CI pipelines always test and build releases using Linux
distribution packages, you can use pip to set up your development environment.
### Proton package registry
If you didn't do it yet, to be able to pip install Proton VPN components you'll
need to set up our internal Python package registry. You can do so running the
command below, after replacing `{GITLAB_TOKEN`} with your
[personal access token](https://gitlab.protontech.ch/help/user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md)
with the scope set to `api`.
```shell
pip config set global.index-url https://__token__:{GITLAB_TOKEN}@gitlab.protontech.ch/api/v4/groups/777/-/packages/pypi/simple
```
In the index URL above, `777` is the id of the current root GitLab group,
the one containing the repositories of all our Proton VPN components.
### Known issues
This component depends on the `PyGObject` python package.
To be able to pip install `PyGObject`, please check the required distribution packages in the
[official documentation](https://pygobject.readthedocs.io/en/latest/devguide/dev_environ.html).
```shell
sudo apt install pkg-config libdbus-1-dev libglib2.0-dev
```
### Virtual environment
You can create the virtual environment and install the rest of dependencies as follows:
```shell
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
### Tests
You can run the tests with:
```shell
pytest
```
