Try using avocado to manage our various tests; even though right now they're only invoking shell scripts and not really running any python-native code. Create tests/, and add shell scripts which call out to mypy, flake8, pylint and isort to enforce the standards in this directory. Add avocado-framework to the setup.cfg development dependencies, and add avocado.cfg to store some preferences for how we'd like the test output to look. Finally, add avocado-framework to the Pipfile environment and lock the new dependencies. We are using avocado >= 87.0 here to take advantage of some features that Cleber has helpfully added to make the test output here *very* friendly and easy to read for developers that might chance upon the output in Gitlab CI. [Note: ALL of the dependencies get updated to the most modern versions that exist at the time of this writing. No way around it that I have seen. Not ideal, but so it goes.] Provided you have the right development dependencies (mypy, flake8, isort, pylint, and now avocado-framework) You should be able to run "avocado --config avocado.cfg run tests/" from the python folder to run all of these linters with the correct arguments. (A forthcoming commit adds the much easier 'make check'.)

QEMU Python Tooling
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
This directory houses Python tooling used by the QEMU project to build,
|
|
configure, and test QEMU. It is organized by namespace (``qemu``), and
|
|
then by package (e.g. ``qemu/machine``, ``qemu/qmp``, etc).
|
|
|
|
``setup.py`` is used by ``pip`` to install this tooling to the current
|
|
environment. ``setup.cfg`` provides the packaging configuration used by
|
|
``setup.py`` in a setuptools specific format. You will generally invoke
|
|
it by doing one of the following:
|
|
|
|
1. ``pip3 install .`` will install these packages to your current
|
|
environment. If you are inside a virtual environment, they will
|
|
install there. If you are not, it will attempt to install to the
|
|
global environment, which is **not recommended**.
|
|
|
|
2. ``pip3 install --user .`` will install these packages to your user's
|
|
local python packages. If you are inside of a virtual environment,
|
|
this will fail; you likely want the first invocation above.
|
|
|
|
If you append the ``-e`` argument, pip will install in "editable" mode;
|
|
which installs a version of the package that installs a forwarder
|
|
pointing to these files, such that the package always reflects the
|
|
latest version in your git tree.
|
|
|
|
Installing ".[devel]" instead of "." will additionally pull in required
|
|
packages for testing this package. They are not runtime requirements,
|
|
and are not needed to simply use these libraries.
|
|
|
