Assume I have a project which looks like
uilities.py
api_1.py
api_2.py
api_3.py
foo.py
bar.py
baz.py
The utilites and api calls does nothing by their own, but they form 90% of the contents of foo.py, bar.py and baz.py.
The contents of foo.py, bar.py and baz.py. are very bare bones, including the commandline interface they are maybe 200 lines each.
The utility.py and api_?.py does little to nothing on their own.
E.g when I call
foo -a --other-arg
Instead of doing, which is what I tried
long_main_package_name foo -a --other-arg
How should i structure my project so that I can call foo.py, bar.py and baz.py directly after installing the package?
You can declare them as console scripts in the setup for building the package for distribution.
