install namespace package

[joshua-morten]

Is it possible to have a setup.py file in the native directory that installs both pkg_a and pkg_b? If so, what would that look like?

something like

native
    |-- setup.py
    |-- pkg_a
        |-- example_pkg/a
        |-- setup.py
    |-- pkg_b
        |-- example_pkg/b
        |-- setup.py

Thank you.

Yes, of course you can install all the namespace packages at once from outside, but they'd just behave like regular packages. The pyproject.toml/setup.py file would normally be in the project root directory, but of course you could
also place it under native/.

You wouldn't be able to import from the same namespace, though, instead:

from native.pkg_a.example_pkg import a
from native.pkg_b.example_pkg import b
