I don't have a MacOs to test why the tests didn't pass :/

I think that the problem is this function: https://github.com/lanl-ansi/PowerModelsDistribution.jl/blob/7a6b03eb0f96d0bcd3269b7d62ffda4d7ccaf4b0/src/io/dss/dss_parse.jl#L538 Because many of the validation statements use space. E.g.: https://github.com/lanl-ansi/PowerModelsDistribution.jl/blob/7a6b03eb0f96d0bcd3269b7d62ffda4d7ccaf4b0/src/io/dss/dss_parse.jl#L554-L560 Maybe changing the space validation to the built-in Julia's function `isspace`...

Maybe, to fix this problem, the code below could be modified to check if the file ends with `.dss` and add the suffix if necessary. https://github.com/lanl-ansi/PowerModelsDistribution.jl/blob/7a6b03eb0f96d0bcd3269b7d62ffda4d7ccaf4b0/src/io/dss/dss_parse.jl#L868-L877 @pseudocubic, If you are...

Is there any update related to that? The issue with macros is a know issue and it is very annoying. See: https://github.com/julia-vscode/StaticLint.jl/issues/282 For example: ```julia @enum Foo Bar = 1...

We can use Poetry as the package and dependencies manager. See #16 and my PR #17.

In a small project, without others developers pip works fine. But if you need a development environment that can be used by others developers, a dependency manager is essential.
