I think we could figure out which top-level folders are package folders by:
folder_name/__init__.py
.tests/
docs/
and examples/
I looked through the bundle, and there are few library packages that are missing __init__.py
. I think these are just in error, and need to have __init__.py
added. A general fix for this issue would have to wait until those are fixed. Once that happens, I think we could get rid of --package-folder-prefix
altogether.
@kattni @sommersoft (and anyone else) does this make sense to you?
These appear to be packages without __init__.py
. Note some are sub-packages and don't influence this issue.

@dhalbert I think that's fine to add __init__.py
and update how it works. You included two examples/
in your list above, was that unintentional?
I'm not entirely clear on how the Adabot check for libraries and examples and so on being named properly works though. Would this break that?

I think those examples are packages that also need __init__.py
(though not to fix this problem).
The https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_asyncio library is a package of multiple library files, but its package folder does not start with
adafruit_
: it is simplyasyncio
. Because the package folders are filtered to match the--package-folder-prefix
argument, which defaults toadafruit_
,asyncio
is not included in the adafruit bundle, though it should be.I could special-case it, and maybe that's the short-term solution. But what is the reason for the existence of
--package_folder_prefix
(which can be a list of multiple prefixes, separated by,
). Is it just to identify the package folder easily? Would it be better just to skip the directories that we know are not package folders, such asdocs
andexamples
? There should then be only one leftover directory, which is the package folder, if there is a package.61 is related, as is this comment by @tannewt that we should use an ignore list instead of an accept list.
