* [Pyuavcan tutorials](http://uavcan.org/Implementations/Pyuavcan/Tutorials/)

## Installation

Compatible Python versions are 2.7 and 3.3 and newer.
If the library is used with Python 3, which is recommended, it does not require any additional dependencies.
If Python 2.7 is used, additional dependencies are needed - refer to `setup.py` for more info.

```bash
pip install uavcan
```

## Development

### Automatic deployment to PyPI

In order to deploy to PyPI via CI, do this:

1. Update the version number in `version.py`, e.g. `1.0.0`, and commit before proceeding.
2. Create a new tag with the same version number, e.g. `git tag -a 1.0.0 -m "My release 1.0.0"`
3. Push to master.

### Code style

The code should be formatted in compliance with [PEP8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/),
with one exception: line length must not exceed 120 characters (PEP8 requires 79).
