Entry points are a way for Python packages to advertise objects with some
|
|
common interface. The most common examples are ``console_scripts`` entry points,
|
|
which define shell commands by identifying a Python function to run.
|
|
|
|
*Groups* of entry points, such as ``console_scripts``, point to objects with
|
|
similar interfaces. An application might use a group to find its plugins, or
|
|
multiple groups if it has different kinds of plugins.
|
|
|
|
The **entrypoints** module contains functions to find and load entry points.
|
|
You can install it from PyPI with ``pip install entrypoints``.
|
|
|
|
To advertise entry points when distributing a package, see
|
|
`entry_points in the Python Packaging User Guide
|
|
<https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/distributing.html#entry-points>`_.
