Re: Python 3.12.1, Windows 11: shebang line #!/usr/bin/env python3 doesn't work any more

What is the "command line" on your Windows 11?

On Windows 10 it usually is "cmd.exe" (Windows Command Prompt).
On Windows 11 it usually is the "Terminal" which is different from 
cmd.exe.

Request to Review: Tutorial about Python Packaging offering different use case

[Christian Buhtz via Python-list]

Hello,

I would like to point to my Python Packaging Tutorial explaining several 
common use cases using minimal demo projects.




I am not an expert and assume that some of my solutions might not be the 
best. So I would appreciate if you can review them.


Background of that project: I am member of FOSS maintainer team and 
prepare the migration of Back In Time 
(https://github.com/bit-team/backintime) from a makefile based 
build-system to a modern Python Build system using pyproject.toml & Co. 
To explore some expect able problems and possible solutions I created 
this minimal examples. I also do plan a tutorial repo about Debian 
Python Packaging using the same approach with minimal examples 
illustrating different use cases.


Thanks in advance,
Christian

Re: Detect naming typos (AttributeError) in function names

Hello Dieter,

thanks for your reply.

One option is a test suite (--> Python's "unittest" package)

Yes, that is the primary goal. But it is far away in the related 
project.


I got a hint that "pylint" is able to detect problems like this.

Detect naming typos (AttributeError) in function names

[Christian Buhtz via Python-list]

Hello,

I would like to know how to detect (e.g. via a linter) typos in function 
names imported from another module.


Let's assume this given Python code snippet.

import foo
foo.baR()

The package "foo" do contain a function named "bar()" (all lower case 
letters). The function "baR()" does not exist in "foo". This cause an 
AttributeError when run with a Python interpreter.


The described error is not detected in my IDE (Emacs with eglot, pylsp 
and flake8) and not by flake8 on the shell. Because the involved tools 
do not look inside the "foo" package if "baR()" really exist.


Can I fix this somehow?

I am aware that this would get detected by a unit test. That is the way 
I do prefer in most cases. But sometimes not all code segments are 
covered by tests. I'm more interested in using a linter or something 
else for that.


Kind
Christian
