Description Ben Beasley 2022-01-07 13:33:54 UTC
Spec URL: https://music.fedorapeople.org/python-autoclasstoc.spec
SRPM URL: https://music.fedorapeople.org/python-autoclasstoc-1.3.0-1.fc35.src.rpm
Description:

It’s surprisingly difficult to document large Python classes in a way that’s
easy for users to navigate. Most projects use the autodoc Sphinx plugin, which
simply puts the complete documentation for each class member one after another.
While this does fully document the class, it doesn’t give the user a quick way
to see everything the class can do. This makes classes of even moderate
complexity difficult to navigate. It also encourages projects to be stingy
about which class members to include in the documentation (e.g. excluding
special methods, inherited methods, private methods, and/or undocumented
methods), to the further detriment of the user.

What’s needed is for each class to have a succinct table of contents (TOC)
that:

  • Is organized into sections that will be meaningful to the user. Different
    projects and classes may call for different sections, e.g. public/private
    methods, methods that share a decorator, methods with a common prefix, etc.
  • Includes every method of the class (so that the documentation is complete),
    while still making it easy for the user to get a sense for what the class
    does and find what they’re looking for.
  • Collapses inherited methods. Complex classes in particular can inherit a
    lot of methods from their parent classes, and while these methods should be
    present in the TOC (since they’re part of the class), collapsing them makes
    it easier for the user to grok the functionality provided by the class
    itself.

autoclasstoc provides a new Restructured Text directive that is all of these
things. It also works well with autodoc and autogen, and should be easy to
incorporate into any existing project.

See the complete documentation (https://autoclasstoc.readthedocs.io/en/latest)
for more information (including examples).

I missed that pyproject-rpm-macros was actually not handling the license file here. Fixed:

The GitHub tarball would be fine. We can build straight from pyproject.toml using pyproject-rpm-macros or anything that understands PEP 517[1]; the setup.py is just for legacy use. On the other hand, there are some reasons to prefer a PyPI sdist when it’s usable. For example, some projects have weird release processes such that the GitHub archives have unexpected version numbers in their metadata, and it’s easy to miss these. Usually I end up picking the GitHub archive because the PyPI sdist is missing some tests or documentation, but that’s not the case here.

----

The “forge” macros have their advocates and their detractors[2]. I’ve often used them and recommended them, but I too have started to feel that it’s often simpler not to use them, e.g.

> URL:            https://github.com/foo/bar
> Source0:        %{url}/archive/v%{version}/bar-%{version}.tar.gz

They *do* make it simpler to build the snapshot information field when packaging from a particular git commit rather than a release or tag, but it turns out they’re not doing it in the currently-recommended way[3], so I’ve even been gradually switching those packages away from these macros.
