AUTHORS.md, HISTORY.md and LICENSE installed outside the packages

[albamig]

We have been facing an issue while downgrading packages within our Docker images related to AUTHORS.md not being found.

The problem is that the following pyproject configuration adds those files to the wheel distribution but outside the package itself.
If you download the wheel and take a look, they are outside of minos.
Another way to see the problem is by running pip -V and moving to the installation directory. The files are there among each other package.

Since the LICENSE already gets imported within the wheel distribution info and the other packages aren't actually important for distribution, I propose to delete that pyproject configuration.

This issue is closely related to python-poetry/poetry#2015

I'll fix this issue following a similar approach to pavdmyt/yaspin#135

Hello, I arrived here from the linked poetry issue as I am having a similar issue to the one you resolved.

Did you fix using the magical sdist work to your satisfaction?

I noticed that when I installed minos-microservice-cqrs there is no HISTORY.md file included at all,

The source distribution looks like this:

tar -ztf ~/Downloads/minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0.tar.gz
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/AUTHORS.md
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/HISTORY.md
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/LICENSE
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/README.md
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/minos/cqrs/init.py
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/minos/cqrs/exceptions.py
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/minos/cqrs/handlers.py
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/minos/cqrs/services.py
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/pyproject.toml
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/setup.py
minos-microservice-cqrs-0.7.0/PKG-INFO

with the files at the top level

the wheel omits these altogether:

tar -ztf ~/Downloads/minos_microservice_cqrs-0.7.0-py3-none-any.whl
minos/cqrs/init.py
minos/cqrs/exceptions.py
minos/cqrs/handlers.py
minos/cqrs/services.py
minos_microservice_cqrs-0.7.0.dist-info/LICENSE
minos_microservice_cqrs-0.7.0.dist-info/WHEEL
minos_microservice_cqrs-0.7.0.dist-info/METADATA
minos_microservice_cqrs-0.7.0.dist-info/RECORD

is this what you intended?

[albamig]

Right! That's what we meant to do.

All of our Minos packages (cqrs, common, networks...) have those files. We don't mind to put them within the sdist because we never install from it. The problem comes just when putting them within the wheel, since if more than one of Minos packages get installed using pip, there is a conflicting overriding of those files at the root level.

Does this solve your issue? Don't hesitate to ask further!
