@loic1665 6 ай бұрын
Yay, a code roast! XD There is one big thing that I think I would still do: turn this into a package. Currently, you just have a collection of modules, but you have a proper package. It’s super easy to do with poetry. Why? • Better separation between the library code (in src/my_package) and the main script (main.py lives outside). • But instead of a script, you can also create a simple CLI, and for that, having a package will greatly help too • Right now, running the main application and the tests ONLY WORKS because you run them from the root folder. But imports in the tests would fail if you were to run them from inside the test folder. And you cannot move the main.py elsewhere. Having a package removes those limitations, as you would import from the package in the tests and the scripts. The imports will always work because you have installed the package in your environment, so python knows where to look. • And as a bonus, this would FIX your red-lines issues in your IDE! I guess what happens is that Pylint is having trouble locations the modules you import. Usually imports work a lot better with packages. BTW, if you have a poetry environment, you have to tell VSCode to use it (cmd palette > Select Python Environment) I hope I convinced you 😊 Also, one more thing FYI: you have OUTPUT_TYPE = “visualizer” # “visualizer” | ”console”. Right now, the type of this variable would be inferred as string, but if you want to more precisely define it, you can do it like this: “OUTPUT_TYPE: Literal[“visualizer”] | Literal[“console”] = “visualizer”, and Literal imported from typing. However, I’m not sure I really recommend this approach, I wonder if a StrEnum wouldn’t be better… Okay, thanks for reading if you made it here 😊 And thank you again for the video 😊

Hi Arjan, again a great video that covers a topic from begin to end. Although I have made quite some packages within the company where I work, I've never taken the threshold to actually publish a package (to a company internal Pypi server that is). I join suggestions from other commenters: could you also do a video on packaging with conda and one with poetry? And what the 'deeper thoughts' behind these alternatives are? So as to understand why they were created anyway? And, if possible, explain why you would favour one over the other? I realize, quite some questions but I sincerely think many struggle with this.

Any suggestions how to build sip-4.16.5 ? Should MS Visual Studio Express 2010 or mingw/gcc be used? For example, Nuitka reports: Python: 3.4.4 (v3.4.4:737efcadf5a6, Dec 20 2015, 19:28:18) [MSC v.1600 32 bit (Intel)] Version C compiler: C:\Users\Temp\AppData\Local\Nuitka\Nuitka\Cache\downloads\gcc\x86\11.3.0-14.0.3-10.0.0-msvcrt-r3\mingw32\bin\gcc.exe (gcc). Which seems like both Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and gcc... so I'd like to build using that gcc rather than microsoft studio since that may mess up Nuitka?

The tendency nowadays is to avoid packaging as code. People get really imaginative when having the possibility to code and start adding logic in `setup.py`, making the building process not so strait forward. The first approach was to do all the same but in `setup.cfg`, an INI-like metadata file format that setuptools understands. Severing the possibility to write complex functions that run during the packaging process. Finally, the consensus is to use a standard build system, that may use setuptools as back-end as well, and define the building rules as metadata too, but in a `pyproject.toml` file. I think that last approach is the most accurate way to teach Python Packaging today. A follow up video perhaps, just to show the current recommended way to package? 😅😛

5:30 - `python setup.py bdist_wheel` apparently does nothing. Did you forget to show how to prepare setup.py? Even after going ahead and preparing `setup.py` and `__init__.py`, after installation, none of the projects, nor any python CLI can see anything inside the package. Can't import anything, can't use any classes, nothing.

Next level: Try to compile a Python package written in C with manylinux tools and publish it via an automated GitHub workflow 😂😂😂 I mean the way you publish doesn't really require PyPI. You'd probably be better off with a Git submodule, tbh. Just clone the repo, cd into it and run "pip install .", basically does the same but without PyPI in your way 😉
