chore: migrate project metadata to pyproject.toml

[afuetterer]

Fixes #435

I migrated the information found in setup.py to pyproject.toml.

What do you think?

Tasks

• replace xmlschema[codegen,docs] with xmlschema[docs] in dev group
• include tool settings from .coveragerc
• include tool settings from mypy.ini
• add tool.setuptools.license-files key
• fix or skip failing test (depends on setup.py)

[afuetterer]

Do you want to include the settings from .coveragerc and mypy.ini here as well?

Yes, include them
thanks

Seems clear e simpler to maintain. I will approve after an inclusion of a link to the LICENSE file.
thank you

[afuetterer]

I am not sure if you need to have this list as well? It is redundant with the dev group. What do you think?

[afuetterer]

This is now enabled by default.

You have test cases that rely on setup.py in https://github.com/sissaschool/xmlschema/blob/master/tests/test_package.py.

Remove those?

I am a huge fan of this github action: https://github.com/hynek/build-and-inspect-python-package

It checks if the package can be built and it outputs inspection results. You want to test it?

try to replace 'setup.py' with 'pyproject.toml' or decorate with unittest.skip

Not now, it's very interesting but the testing process of xmlschema it's a mix of package's tests and W3C xsdtests, so deciding when is the package is ready for publishing doesn't depend only on CI tests.

[afuetterer]

How to proceed?

FAILED (failures=5, errors=1, skipped=3)

• tests/test_package.py
• tests/test_typing.py

You want to unittest.skip those tests?

FAILED (failures=5, errors=1, skipped=3)

I can merge anyway despite the failing tests (minor things anyway, but static typing errors have to be checked also against the next major release of elementpath that is ready) because the contribution will be then merged in v4.0 develop for final tests of the new major release).

Waiting for your feedback, if you can, add a skip on failing tests, but don't mind about that if you can't.

Then if it's okay for you, I'll squash and merge your commits after your feedback.

Best

[afuetterer]

I am not sure, if I understand what you mean.

I skipped two tests, that depend on setup.py being present.

Still: FAILED (failures=5, skipped=5)

I don't know, why the typing tests fail. I did not touch the code itself. Were they passing before?

Yes, feel free to squash and merge, if you want to work on the tests individually.

Hi,
I'm trying to build a v3.4.4 of the package after fixed type annotation errors but the packages discovery method of setuptools with pyproject.toml seems to not work like with setup.py configuration.

Within setup.py there was these config entries:

    packages=find_packages(include=['xmlschema*']),
    package_data={
        'xmlschema': ['py.typed', 'locale/**/*.mo', 'locale/**/*.po', 'schemas/*/*.xsd'],
        'xmlschema.extras': ['templates/*/*.jinja'],
    },

using packages = ["xmlschema"] (the configuration of your PR) or replacing it with [tool.setuptools.packages.find] and [tool.setuptools.package-data] sections produces a bunch of warnings like that:

/tmp/build-env-lg2nte8h/lib64/python3.13/site-packages/setuptools/command/build_py.py:212: _Warning: Package 'xmlschema.schemas.XHTML' is absent from the `packages` configuration.
!!

        ********************************************************************************
        ############################
        # Package would be ignored #
        ############################
        Python recognizes 'xmlschema.schemas.XHTML' as an importable package[^1],
        but it is absent from setuptools' `packages` configuration.

        This leads to an ambiguous overall configuration. If you want to distribute this
        package, please make sure that 'xmlschema.schemas.XHTML' is explicitly added
        to the `packages` configuration field.

        Alternatively, you can also rely on setuptools' discovery methods
        (for example by using `find_namespace_packages(...)`/`find_namespace:`
        instead of `find_packages(...)`/`find:`).

        You can read more about "package discovery" on setuptools documentation page:

        - https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/package_discovery.html

        If you don't want 'xmlschema.schemas.XHTML' to be distributed and are
        already explicitly excluding 'xmlschema.schemas.XHTML' via
        `find_namespace_packages(...)/find_namespace` or `find_packages(...)/find`,
        you can try to use `exclude_package_data`, or `include-package-data=False` in
        combination with a more fine grained `package-data` configuration.

        You can read more about "package data files" on setuptools documentation page:

        - https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/datafiles.html


        [^1]: For Python, any directory (with suitable naming) can be imported,
              even if it does not contain any `.py` files.
              On the other hand, currently there is no concept of package data
              directory, all directories are treated like packages.
        ********************************************************************************

Tried all the possible options on these sections but the result is a correct wheel with a bunch of warnings or an incomplete wheel (package-data is not included).

Any ideas for that?

Thank you

[afuetterer]

Per documentation include-package-data defaults to True, so package data should be included.

What command are you running, that results in the errors / warnings?

python -m build?

yes, using tox -e build
