Improve python extensibility #1677

Closed miratepuffin closed 3 months ago

miratepuffin commented 3 months ago

What changes were proposed in this pull request?

In this PR we broke the raphtory python module function down into several helper functions which return the submodules (algorithms, graphql, etc) making it much easier to build custom versions of the raphtory python module.

Why are the changes needed?

The python module was set up in a way which made it difficult to extend for users who wish to build custom raphtory distributions with private algorithms etc.

Does this PR introduce any user-facing change? If yes is this documented?

Not for the average user - documentation on custom distros is on way.

How was this patch tested?

Tested via the standard unit tests, via the example extended raphtory library and privately.

Are there any further changes required?

There are several further project rejigs planned, but nothing more to do here.
