Client-side Python library for connecting to an IQM quantum computer.
IQM client is not intended to be used directly by human users. For executing code on an IQM quantum computer, you can use for example the Qiskit on IQM library.
If you want just this library, though, you can install it from the Python Package Index (PyPI):
$ pip install iqm-client
Documentation for the latest version is available online.
You can build documentation for any older version locally by cloning the Git repository, checking out the
corresponding tag, and running the docs builder. For example, to build the documentation for version 15.4
:
$ git clone [email protected]:iqm-finland/iqm-client.git
$ cd iqm-client
$ git checkout 15.4
$ tox run -e docs
(Unless you need to build documentation for multiple versions, consider passing git clone
options to
only clone the commit for the specific version tag, e.g. --branch 15.4 --depth 1
for version 15.4
.
This will be much faster than cloning the full repository, because some large files have been stored
in the commit history.)
tox run -e docs
will build the documentation at ./build/sphinx/html
. This command requires the tox,
, sphinx
and
sphinx-book-theme
Python packages (see the docs
optional dependency in pyproject.toml
);
you can install the necessary packages with pip install -e ".[dev,docs]"
