Build from Source

This page is for contributors working in the core-next workspace.

Requirements​

  • Python >=3.8
  • Rust toolchain
  • maturin
  • Node.js >=18 if you want to run the docs site

Build the Rust library​

From the repository root:

cargo build -p enki-next
cargo test -p enki-next

Before publishing the crate to crates.io, validate the package layout:

cargo package -p enki-next --allow-dirty

Build the Python package locally​

From crates/bindings/enki-py:

pip install maturin
maturin develop

If you use the existing virtual environment in the crate, activate it first and run maturin develop there.

Build the JavaScript package locally​

From crates/bindings/enki-js:

npm install
npm run build

This crate publishes the native Node.js package @getenki/ai via napi-rs.

Build the builder CLI​

From the repository root:

Run the CLI locally with:

cargo run -p builder -- --help
