Elegant way to auto_register things in different sections?

See original GitHub issue

I have my checks divided up into multiple modules and one extra module to tie them together like this:

import fontbakery.checkrunner
import fontbakery.specifications.ufo_sources

import damacheck.constants
import damacheck.dama_conditions
import damacheck.ufo.anchors
import damacheck.ufo.components
import damacheck.ufo.conditions
import damacheck.ufo.hinting
import damacheck.ufo.kerning
import damacheck.ufo.misc
import damacheck.ufo.outline
import damacheck.ufo.spacing
import damacheck.ufo.unicode
import damacheck.util

specification = fontbakery.specifications.ufo_sources.UFOSpec(
    iterargs={"font": "fonts"},
    derived_iterables={"ufo_fonts": ("ufo_font", True)},
)
specification.merge_specification(fontbakery.specifications.ufo_sources.specification)
specification.auto_register(globals())
specification.auto_register(damacheck.dama_conditions.__dict__)
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.conditions.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Anchors")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.anchors.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Components")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.components.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Hinting")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.hinting.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Kerning")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.kerning.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Miscellaneous")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.misc.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Outlines")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.outline.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Spacing")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.spacing.__dict__)
specification._default_section = fontbakery.checkrunner.Section("Unicode")
specification.auto_register(damacheck.ufo.unicode.__dict__)
specification._default_section = None
specification.test_expected_checks(
    [
        "com.daltonmaag/check/ufolint",
        "com.daltonmaag/check/ufo-required-fields",
        "com.daltonmaag/check/ufo-recommended-fields",
        "com.daltonmaag/check/ufo-unnecessary-fields",
    ]
)

I want to put each module into its own section to make it easier to generate a report ordered by sections. auto_register just dumps stuff into the default section, so I’m setting the default section manually. Is there a more elegant way or should I extend auto_register?

Interdasting. More digging tomorrow. Giving the section a sensible name would be nice though, maybe I can think of something nice.

Probably. Will reopen if I can’t make it work.
