πŸ“¦ version 0.12, in debian bookworm, ubuntu jammy, ubuntu noble

✨ NAME ✨

fastep β€” bestie, this is the little glow-up potion that adjusts ur python project so it uses fastentrypoints πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

fastep [dir1] [dir2] [...]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the tea, fr fr: fastep goes into ur project and makes sure that fastentrypoints is included in MANIFEST.in and present in setup.py. that's literally its whole job and it eats every time πŸŽ€

now, why do we even care?? bc using entry_points in ur setup.py makes ur scripts start SO slowly 😭 like, embarrassingly slowly. and why? bc it imports pkg_resources, which is a genuinely horrible thing to do if u want ur trivial little script to execute more or less instantly. it's giving chaos, it's giving delay, it's giving not the vibe πŸ™ˆ

fastentrypoints makes the entry_points specified in setup.py load more quickly. periodt. faster load, happier bestie, main character energy only πŸ‘‘
