cadquery-ocp-proxy
Proxy package to track cadquery_ocp / cadquery_ocp_novtk version
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are installing packages that declare cadquery-ocp-proxy as an optional dependency and need to choose between VTK and non-VTK variants. Install it indirectly by specifying [vtk] or [novtk] on the consuming package. Do not install this package directly; it is a dependency-management tool. Be aware that omitting the extra leaves OCP uninstalled, which requires runtime error handling in packages that depend on it.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python >=3.10.
- Must explicitly specify [vtk] or [novtk] extra during install; omitting it leaves the OCP dependency uninstalled.
- Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel.

What it is and what it does
cadquery-ocp-proxy is a dependency-routing package that declares optional dependencies on either cadquery_ocp (with VTK support) or cadquery_ocp_novtk (without VTK). It exists to allow packages in its ecosystem to depend on a single proxy rather than directly on OCP variants, enabling users to choose which variant to install at install time by selecting the appropriate extra.
The package itself contains no functional code—it is purely a dependency-management tool. Users must explicitly select [vtk] or [novtk] when installing packages that depend on it. Omitting the extra leaves the OCP dependency uninstalled, which consuming packages must handle at runtime with appropriate error guidance.
Use it for
- Install multiple ecosystem packages together by selecting the [vtk] extra for VTK-enabled environments
- Use ecosystem packages without VTK overhead by selecting [novtk] for lighter deployments
- Provide a single dependency point for ecosystem packages that need flexible OCP variant selection
- Enable runtime error handling in consuming packages when the OCP extra is not specified
