Walkthrough

The pull request updates the development dependency setup. The installation command in the documentation has been changed to point to a dedicated development requirements file. A new file for development dependencies has been added, which builds on production dependencies and includes additional tools for testing and code formatting. The project’s setup configuration has been adjusted to remove testing packages from the core installation and to offer them as an optional extras group.

Changes

File(s)	Change Summary
CONTRIBUTING.md	Updated the dependency installation command from pip install -r requirements.txt to pip install -r requirements_dev.txt for the local development setup.
requirements_dev.txt, setup.py	Introduced development-specific dependencies. Created requirements_dev.txt (referencing production dependencies and adding pytest and black), and updated setup.py by removing pytest from install_requires and adding an extras_require entry for dev dependencies.
tofupilot/init.py	Removed import statements for numeric_step, string_step, and conf from the .plugin module, simplifying the imports in the tofupilot/__init__.py file.

Poem

Hop, hop, I twitch my nose in cheer,
A new dev path now is clear.
Commands refined and tools in play,
With pytest and black to brighten the day.
Code hops along in a dance so dear!

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
  • Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

I haven't used pip install -e .'[dev]' in test-current-version.yml because from what I understand, pytest is not necessary in those tests and I wanted to stay as close as possible to "real" conditions, where the client installs tofupilot without the dev dependencies.
However it only works because we wanted to disable the pytest plugin for now. If we want to include it again, we'll have to change the dependencies VS dev dependencies.
