## SDK Installation

> **Python version upgrade policy**  
> Once a Python version reaches its [official end of life date](https://devguide.python.org/versions/), a 3-month grace period is provided for users to upgrade. Following this grace period, the minimum python version supported in the SDK will be updated.

The SDK can be installed with _uv_, _pip_, or _poetry_ package managers.

### uv

_uv_ is a fast Python package installer and resolver, designed as a drop-in replacement for pip and pip-tools. It's recommended for its speed and modern Python tooling capabilities.

Ask

```bash
uv add moovio_sdk
```

### PIP

_PIP_ is the default package installer for Python, enabling easy installation and management of packages from PyPI via the command line.

Ask

```bash
pip install moovio_sdk
```

### Poetry

_Poetry_ is a modern tool that simplifies dependency management and package publishing by using a single `pyproject.toml` file to handle project metadata and dependencies.

Ask

```bash
poetry add moovio_sdk
```

### Shell and script usage with `uv`

You can use this SDK in a Python shell with [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) and the `uvx` command that comes with it like so:

Ask

```shell
uvx --from moovio_sdk python
```

It's also possible to write a standalone Python script without needing to set up a whole project like so:

Ask

```python
#!/usr/bin/env -S uv run --script
# /// script
# requires-python = ">=3.10"
# dependencies = [\
#     "moovio_sdk",\
# ]
# ///

from moovio_sdk import Moov

sdk = Moov(
  # SDK arguments
)

# Rest of script here...
```

Once that is saved to a file, you can run it with `uv run script.py` where `script.py` can be replaced with the actual file name.
