Shared test functionality & dev dependencies which are commonly required.
Part of the csvcubed project.
The devtools package contains common packages necessary for development of csvcubed such as:
- behave - for behaviour testing / BDD
- docker - to execute docker containers, used to transform and test csvcubed outputs.
- black - auto-formatter to ensure consistent code formatting/style.
It also contains shared functionality to support testing, e.g. common behave test steps like checking that files exist, using temporary directories when testing as well as tools to copy test files to & from docker containers.
This package should be installed as a dev dependency to ensure that end-users of csvcubed are not required to install development tools such as docker.
Dependencies are installed in the Docker container on a container-wide basis. If you're adding a new package, first run:
poetry add <some-package>And once that has completed, if you are working inside the docker dev container, you must rebuild the container before the packages will be available for your use.
