Descrizione
Discussion moved from an internal doc and discussion with @rickeylev:
> Externally, the Bazel Python rules have an attribute named `imports`. This is a string list of repo-relative paths that should be added to `sys.path`.
@dougthor42 writes in a comment:
> FYI: With gazelle's `python_root` directive, these are autogenerated as package-relative paths, eg `["../../.."]`.
>
> Now that I see [that `imports` is repo-relative], I might submit a PR to change Gazelle to generate repo-relative paths.
@rickeylev replies:
> Hm. Is package-relative better than repo-relative? Quick thought is: they both have pros and cons.
> Which makes me think: is there something that has all pros and no cons?
> To which I think: maybe we can change the logic to more directly express what we're after.
> When src/my_package says "add .. to path", what it really means is: make sure sys.path has a directory with "my_package" as a sub directory.
> So maybe instead we add a top_level_package_name attribute? Under the hood, a quick implementation would be to just do "compute the correct imports attr value automatically". A better impl for the future would be to ensure that some directory with the desired name ends up in sys.path, however that may come to be.
