Package namespacing can help organize modules within a larger project. It can also help show that a package belongs to an organization.
|
|
|
|
For example, let's say you want to have a module named `companyname.component`. Then you want to have the following project structure.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
companyname/
|
|
component/
|
|
__init__.py
|
|
...
|
|
setup.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that there is no `__init__.py` under `companyname`.
|
|
|
|
Then in your `setup.py` denote where to find the packages using a namespace.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from setuptools import setup, find_namespace_packages
|
|
|
|
setup(name="companyname.component",
|
|
version="0.0.1",
|
|
packages=find_namespace_packages(include=["companyname.*"]))
|
|
```
|
