Your tests do not run against the package as it will be installed by its users. They run against whatever the situation in your project directory is.
To achieve that, you just move your packages into a src directory and add a where argument to find_packages() in your setup.py:

[#C] [2019-08-25] https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/argparse.html argparse: use set_defaults
One particularly effective way of handling sub-commands is to combine the use of the add_subparsers() method with calls to set_defaults() so that each subparser knows which Python function it should execute. For example: This way, you can let parse_args() do the job of calling the appropriate function after argument parsing is complete. Associating functions with actions like this is typically the easiest way to handle the different actions for each of your subparsers. However, if it is necessary to check the name of the subparser that was invoked, the dest keyword argument to the add_subparsers() call will work:

Now everything is the way we wanted, with Pipenv many times faced issues that the project worked with requirements.txt but not in Pipenv. Didn’t have this issue moving to poetry yet. Also with emacs support and automated deployment tools the predictability of poetry made our team easy to work with and publish Python application modules.

pipenv- like venv - can be used to create virtual envelopes but additionally rolls-in package management and vulnerability checking functionality. Instead of using requirements.txt, pipenv delivers package management via Pipfile. As PyPA endorses pipenv for PACKAGE MANAGEMENT, that would seem to imply pipfile is to supplant requirements.txt. HOWEVER: pipenv uses virtualenv as its tool for creating virtual envelopes, NOT venv which is endorsed by PyPA as the go-to tool for creating virtual envelopes.

[#B] [2020-07-08] SymPy - a Python library for symbolic mathematics | Hacker News
As one point of comparison, SymPy is comically slow compared to Sage. This is mostly because SymPy is purely Python; Sage on the other hand uses a derivative of GiNaC [1] for its internal symbolic expression representation, and then multiple external libraries for non-trivial operations. Symbolic transformations are mostly Maxima [3]. Sage literally converts expressions to strings, pipes them through a Maxima process, and then parses the result back. This is still much faster than the pure Python SymPy.
There is an effort to speed up SymPy core, SymEngine [3], but it's been in development for years now, and still isn't integrated into SymPy. Not sure why.
Case in point: 'expand("(2+3x+4x*y)^60")' takes 5 seconds with SymPy; Sage does the same in 0.02 seconds.

Normally, an object's attributes are stored in a dict, which requires a fair bit of memory itself. If you are creating millions of objects then the space required by these dicts becomes prohibitive. __slots__ informs the python machinery that makes the class object that there will only be so many attributes refered to by instances of this class and what the names of the attributes will be. Therefore, the class can make an optimisation by storing the attributes directly on the instance rather than in a dict. It places the memory for the (pointers to the) attributes directly on the object, rather than creating a new dict for the object.

Requirements Files described most simply, are just a list of pip install arguments placed into a file. Whereas install_requires defines the dependencies for a single project, Requirements Files are often used to define the requirements for a complete Python environment. Whereas install_requires requirements are minimal, requirements files often contain an exhaustive listing of pinned versions for the purpose of achieving repeatable installations of a complete environment. Whereas install_requires requirements are “Abstract”, i.e. not associated with any particular index, requirements files often contain pip options like --index-url or --find-links to make requirements “Concrete”, i.e. associated with a particular index or directory of packages. 1 Whereas install_requires metadata is automatically analyzed by pip during an install, requirements files are not, and only are used when a user specifically installs them using pip install -r.https://github.com/kynan/nbstripout pretty good comparizon

Yes. I've written a few systems using SQLAlchemy that see 50-100k writes and 200k or so reads per second, and as long as you're using the Core everything works fine. Also allows you to use the ORM for ease-of-development on bits that don't need performance. SQLAlchemy is probably the one library in which I've never reached the "wait, I need to do something and can't" point. Every single weird edge case I've had to handle has been supported either natively or by being able to access the raw interfaces directly in a clean way. Fantastic library, can't recommend it more highly. Also, the lead dev is extremely responsive on the google group and is more than happy to answer questions.https://python-packaging.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command-line-scripts.html#the-console-scripts-entry-point https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hy https://lisp-journey.gitlab.io/pythonvslisp don’t feel like it’s very objective comparison. lots of things are picked etc although I’m not very positive towards lisp either https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/69wym8/when_do_you_us_beautiful_soup_or_scrapy/

https://www.quora.com/Which-one-is-better-Bokeh-or-PlotlyCompare Bokeh with Plotly 1. Easy to install. The process is very similar to Plotly. 2. Bokeh plot is not as interactive as Plotly. 3. Limitation on drawing string value on plot. It looks like only the bar chart can take the string values. Date time string has to convert to DateTime type first in order to be on non-bar plots such as scatter, line, etc. 4. It is not easy to overlay different type of plots on one figure. 5. Less examples online. 6. Less integrated with Panda than Plotly.https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/5nwk9r/plotly_vs_bokeh_vs/
The last advantage I found that plotly has over bokeh is that almost everything in plotly is a dict. This is really useful because I've found certain plotly functions are really slow for some reason or can't be called when you use the multiprocessing module because of pickling issues. Not a problem, in the end they generate dicts under the hood, you can do the same yourself and still pass those dicts to plotly. Also calling help() on plotly objects tells you what keys and values you need to add to your dict.
e.g. unpicling requires exactly same modules etc? might be hard if you want to unpickle elsewhere

Features of Nbdev
- Automatically generate docs from Jupyter notebooks. These docs are searchable and automatically hyperlinked to appropriate documentation pages by introspecting keywords you surround in backticks.
- Utilities to automate the publishing of pypi and conda packages including version number management.
- A robust, two-way sync between notebooks and source code, which allow you to use your IDE for code navigation or quick edits if desired.
- Fine-grained control on hiding/showing cells: you can choose to hide entire cells, just the output, or just the input. Furthermore, you can embed cells in collapsible elements that are open or closed by default.
- Ability to write tests directly in notebooks without having to learn special APIs. These tests get executed in parallel with a single CLI command. You can even define certain groups of tests such that you don't have to always run long-running tests.
- Tools for merge/conflict resolution with notebooks in a human readable format.
- Continuous integration (CI) comes setup for you with GitHub Actions

Agree. I now have a sudden urge to write a guide how to start from very simple (i.e. system interpreter, no packaging, minimal verification) and how to progress further on. And how to decide what tools do you even need to consider and at which stage. In hindsight as a somewhat experienced Python programmer I can see how each of these tools can be helpful – but if I was a beginner I would be completely overwhelmed.

acropy is excellent when one wants to use syntactic macros.

You have to import them separately, which makes their use cumbersome. This was my project to work around this issue. It works, but is very hacky, and requires adding a new codec to the Python installation.
