add resources symlink #416

Closed braingram closed 8 months ago

braingram commented 9 months ago

This PR adds a symlink ink src/asdf-standard to the resources directory (and excludes this symlink from packaging). This allows editable installs of asdf-standard to use importlib.resources to inspect resources.

This is the first PR in a 3 part series to hopefully break the link between asdf-standard and asdf which prevents asdf-standard from adding a new standard without breaking asdf tests. The general plan is:

this PR
update asdf to use importlib.resources to inspect asdf-standard to determine what versions are available: https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf/pull/1702
add a new standard version 1.7.0-dev to show the above worked: https://github.com/asdf-format/asdf-standard/pull/415
