Can we have `ogusa_default_parameters.json` file available from `pip` install?

I'm wondering if there is any way to package `ogusa_default_parameters.json with the PyPI distribution and allow users of that package to access this JSON file directly from the package. e.g., something like ogusa.ogusa_default_parameters.json

Is this possible?

In general, I want to best think through how users who don't want to clone the repo to bring down files locally can use the OG-USA default calibration from this package.

A possible solution is to have them install the package and then read the JSON file directly from the github URL. But wondering if there are other options.

We've figured this out. One can use:

with importlib.resources.open_text(
        "ogusa", "ogusa_default_parameters.json"
    ) as file:
        defaults = json.load(file)
    p.update_specifications(defaults)
