Using Unreleased Commits¶

Since v0.5, all pytauri packages support installation from a Git repository via branch, commit SHA, or PR (pull request).

Install Rust crate from source¶

ref: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/overriding-dependencies.html#the-patch-section

Append this to your Cargo.toml file:

[patch.crates-io]
pytauri = { git = "https://github.com/pytauri/pytauri.git", branch = "main" }
pytauri-core = { git = "https://github.com/pytauri/pytauri.git", branch = "main" }
tauri-plugin-pytauri = { git = "https://github.com/pytauri/pytauri.git", branch = "main" }
# other pytauri dependencies which you need ...

This will force all your dependencies to use pytauri from Git instead of crates.io.

Install Python package from source¶

ref: https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/projects/dependencies/#dependency-sources

Append this to your pyproject.toml file:

[tool.uv.sources]
pytauri = { git = 'https://github.com/pytauri/pytauri.git', branch = "main", subdirectory = "python/pytauri" }
# other pytauri dependencies which you need ...

Tip

You can check the [tool.uv.workspace] section in pyproject.toml to find the subdirectory for each package.

Install JS package from source¶

Inspired by: https://vite.dev/guide/#using-unreleased-commits

Thanks to https://pkg.pr.new/, you can install JS package from specific branch, commit SHA, or PR with:

# or pnpm, yarn, bun, whatever
npm i https://pkg.pr.new/tauri-plugin-pytauri-api@main

Tip

To replace the pytauri version used by dependencies transitively, you should use npm overrides or pnpm overrides.
