Update packaging format #605

Open ZviBaratz opened 2 years ago

ZviBaratz commented 2 years ago

Python packaging is moving towards ditching the setup.py file altogether and using pyproject.toml and setup.cfg. Would it be a welcome PR if I replace the existing setup.py with the new files?

That sounds a good idea, especially if you are interested in being a maintainer. BTW, thanks for your contributions so far. Do you use flaml in your project?

ZviBaratz commented 2 years ago

@sonichi glad to hear, and I would be happy to become a maintainer. I am using flaml as part of my PhD, studying the individuality of anatomical MRI-derived features and their relationship with physiological and cognitive attributes. I was looking up AutoML frameworks and came across flaml in the OpenML Benchmark website. I am under some pressure to finish writing my dissertation by the end of the year, so my availability might be somewhat limited until then, but I'm happy to slowly become more involved with the code-base.
