Caring for Python

Because we care about Python too!

Python bindings to perform a MPC summation.

    import pycare
    # Setup the system over TCP
    engine = pycare.setup("<your address>", "<first peer address>", "<more peer addresses>")
    # Some floating point number and receive output
    res = engine.sum(2.45)
    # Takedown the system again.
    engine.takedown()

Note that there is currently no support for channel encryption.

Install

We currently build using GitHub actions for Python 3.7 and above for Linux x86_64 and aarch64. The targets can be found actions for the PyO3 CI as wheels. To install a wheel run the following pip install caring-<version>.whl for the version for your given platform.

Examples

There are two test files in examples showcasing the use between two different parties test1.py and test2.py.

Develop

To install the package locally you want to setup a virtual environment and install maturin.

    $ python -m venv .env
    $ source .env/bin/activate
    $ pip install maturin

Then you should be able to run maturin develop and have a version of pycare available.
