Bug#997044: ITP: markdown-it-py -- a Python port of markdown-it and some its associated plugins
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Emmanuel Arias X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-python@lists.debian.org * Package name: markdown-it-py Version : 1.1.0 Upstream Author : Chris Sewell * URL : https://github.com/executablebooks/markdown-it-py * License : Expat Programming Lang: Python Description : a Python port of markdown-it and some its associated plugins . markdown-it-py is a Python port of markdown-it and its associated plugins. The design philosophy of the port has been to change as little of the fundamental code structure (file names, function name, etc) as possible. just sprinkling in a little Python syntactic sugar. . I plan to maintain it under the DPT umbrella. Chers, Emmanuel

I hope this helps, Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Hi Stefano, Am 22.10.2021 um 05:44 schrieb Stefano Rivera: pytest also has a mechanism to register plugins through an environment variable, but I couldn't figure out how to get the test suite to work with that. thanks for this hint, that seems like a clean solution for my case: PYTEST_PLUGINS="pytest_lazyfixture" python3.9 -m pytest There is also the "-p" option which shoul early-load plugins by module name but it didn't work for me. The environment variable did. Thanks, Michael
Re: .egg-info for entry points during dh_auto_test
Hi Michael I wrestled with something similar some years ago with translate-toolkit, which has a set of tests that run the binaries it ships but these (entry-points) binaries are not generated until after installation. The pybuild/debhelper sequence is to build, test then install; upstream's view is to build, install then test, and so that is what I faked for that package, overriding the normal test invocation, and running the tests in an execute_after_dh_install step: https://sources.debian.org/src/translate-toolkit/unstable/debian/rules/#L59 I help the test suite find the binaries in debian/translate-toolkit/usr/bin and pybuild points the test harness at the modules in the normal place in .pybuild/. That's pretty ugly, but it has worked out ok for this package. A related problem is the PEP517 builders go from source to wheel and then install the wheel; the entry_points and scripts only appear after installation, and so once again, testing most probably lives after 'install' not before. Given that entry_points, plugin registration, PEP517 are all pointing us towards build/install/test as the paradigm rather than build/test/install, do we need to look for an additional dh step to be added to our normal sequence to help us with what is becoming a common task? regards Stuart -- Stuart Prescotthttp://www.nanonanonano.net/ stu...@nanonanonano.net Debian Developer http://www.debian.org/ stu...@debian.org GPG fingerprint90E2 D2C1 AD14 6A1B 7EBB 891D BBC1 7EBB 1396 F2F7
