.. _module-pw_doctor:

---------
pw_doctor
---------
``pw doctor`` confirms the environment is set up correctly. With ``--strict``
it checks that things exactly match what is expected and it checks that things
look compatible without.

Projects that adjust the behavior of pw_env_setup may need to customize
these checks, but unfortunately this is not supported yet.

Checks carried out by pw_doctor include:

* The bootstrapped OS matches the current OS.
* ``PW_ROOT`` is defined and points to the root of the Pigweed repo.
* The presubmit git hook is installed.
* The current Python version is 3.8 or 3.9.
* The Pigweed virtual env is active.
* CIPD is set up correctly and in use.
* The CIPD packages required by Pigweed are up to date.
* The platform support symlinks.
