Create an openzim hatch plugin

benoit74 commented 6 months ago

We should create a hatch plugin which would:

populate shared metadata, e.g. author, readme, license, classifiers, most keywords are expected to always be the same across all scrapers, it is a pain to repeat them over and over (with a significant risk of discrepancies / errors, and useless added complexity to update them all)
propose some shared build actions, with the first known need being the "installation" of JS dependencies

Some known "good" plugins are listed here: https://hatch.pypa.io/latest/plugins/build-hook/reference/

Is it ok to name the plugin "hatch-openzim" and create a repo with the same name in the openzim organization?

Work has started here: https://github.com/openzim/hatch-openzim/tree/initial_version

I struggle to test the plugin locally, probably only a misconfiguration, I asked for help upstream.

Code for the download of assets is mostly ready, it only need a good test harness (and it is not really very simple to do locally, but still mandatory for such an important piece of code)
