在我的 python 项目中使用我自己的模块的最佳方式

Question

I can't find an answer for this question. Probably because I have not the good keywords. If this is too basic, please just tell me where to look for.

We have a Python project our_project in which I want to use a little Python module that I wrote : my_module .

our_project and my_module both have a git repo. I do not want to just put my_module.py into our_project/ because I want to keep improving my_module independently of our_project and be abble to use it in other projects.

I'm looking for a simple way to acces the most rencent version of my_module from our_project . (for me and my collaborators)

What should I do ?

Answer 1

I would suggest to create a library on another repo with its own setuptools configuration .

You can use pip's editable install to install it and also keep it updated while being develop. It allows you to install dependencies directly from git repositories.
