Workspace members: Added symbolic link support
Hi! Can you say a bit more about why this change is important or link to some prior discussion?
Sorry for the late reply.
I am not sure if the fact that workspace members do not follow symbolic links is intentional. If it is, perhaps we could add a clear flag like follow-link = true
to accommodate this PR. The reason I want to add this feature is to solve an issue I am facing, which is as follows:
- MyMonoRepo
- libs
- util_lib
- Projects
- projectA
- src
- projectA
- pyproject.toml
- libs
- util_lib_lnk -> MyMonoRepo/libs/util_lib # symbolic link as workspace member
- projectB
When developing any project, such as projectA
, I want to include util_lib
as a workspace member and install it editable locally. However, util_lib
is not located within the projectA
directory, and I found that this can be achieved through symbolic links.
Is there another method that I am not aware of that can accomplish what I want?
It seems that PR #1023 is related to this PR, as both are about locating workspace members in a mono repo. Symbolic links seem to be a possible solution.
