I have a python package that I want to include some specific files from a submodule without including the entire package, so the structure looks like:
foo_project
|
+-- submodule_files
+-- bar.json
+-- other_stuff
+-- foo
+-- __init__.py
+-- foo.py
+-- <symlink to bar.json>
The poetry toml file has
packages = [
{ include = "foo" }
]
When the wheel is created using poetry build, the linked files are copied, but not the links themselves
foo_wheel
|
+-- submodule_files
+-- bar.json
+-- foo
+-- __init__.py
+-- foo.py
(left out info directory in wheel for brevity)
Therefore once installed, the python package is missing the extra files
