Move in-repo configuration to pyproject.toml
Cadair opened this issue · comments
It seems that various projects are adopting the pyproject.toml file as described by PEP 518 for configuration of tools that operate on the repo. (Examples I have found are towncrier tidypy and poetry).
Given that I have now written a changelog processor for towncrier and am therefore reading this toml file anyway, how would you feel about moving the .astropybot.yml config into a tool.botname section in pyproject.toml?
I have code for this now btw and I am using it for sunpybot to prevent the addition of yet another file in the root of the repo, so if you want it it's yours.
Since it is an accepted PEP, I don't have any objection. @astrofrog and @bsipocz ?
@Cadair , feel free to open another PR with your suggestion on how it should be used. 😄
I'm not convinced by the examples that it's widely used yet, but given it's an accepted PEP and the motivation makes sense, so why not be amongst the first ones to use it.
PR is welcome :)
Yeah it dosen't seem to be that widely used, but I like the concept of having one config file to put all the stuff in rather than each thing having its own.
I will rebase my branches and send a PR.
