Description
my v5 wishlist:
- typing/
py.typed(finally) - oop encapsulate things like waiting and such (finally) (https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-python/issues/567#issuecomment-2260738619, #660)
- how dind works - i think after typing and oop encapsulation this one should be much easier to work on.
- all of the
Network/with_networkthings - standardize compose interface? https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-python/discussions/667
smaller things:
- the logger setup as mentioned in https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-python/issues/600#issuecomment-2151451091
- module split / generic module (DbContainer, others)
- review most function names - lot of unnecessary variety here
