# Content
The python-wrapper project allows using orekit in a python environment. This repository contains some key files if building the wrapper from scratch. For many applications it is recommended to use pre-built conda packages through the conda-forge python system. See the [wiki](https://gitlab.orekit.org/orekit-labs/python-wrapper/-/wikis/home) for more details.
# Building from source
The sources for the java classes that allows Python subclassing are no longer in a separate package but integrated in a modified orekit source fork.
This fork is available at https://github.com/petrushy/Orekit
A compiled jar and some other artifacts are available at https://github.com/petrushy/orekit_python_artifacts
Build scripts for the automated conda package builds are at https://github.com/conda-forge/orekit-feedstock/tree/main/recipe
