Streamline the plugin registration #119

Closed ev-br closed 2 weeks ago

ev-br commented 6 months ago

Look into defining a setup tools entry point:

https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/how-to/writing_plugins.html#setuptools-entry-points

This is to allow:

avoid hijacking the --doctest-modules switch
avoid importing dt_config instance from our contest (global state?)

This was done by Sheila in https://github.com/scipy/scipy_doctest/pull/71. The fact that the plugin reacts to the --doctest-modules can be considered as a feature, and the global state is a mere convenience not a requirement. Closing as completed.
