Support for multiple packages within a single directory

hey, thanks for the package, this is really what I need for my project!

There’s one thing I don’t get though. What if I want to enfoce import rules at the root of my project, not at one of its modules?

For example, I have a django project with a core module with some utilities and an apps module with several django apps. Is there a way to prohibit anything from the apps module to import the core module? What should be placed in the root_package setting then?

Hi Sem,

Thanks for your comment, sorry for the delay in responding (I was on holiday).

I’m inclined to think you’re right. Until recently I had seen this approach as being a nonstandard way to organise Python code bases but it’s much commoner than I had appreciated.

It’s a fair amount of work to achieve this, as it involves rethinking the foundations of Grimp, which is the library that builds the dependency graph that Import Linter analyses. I’ve created an issue there for the time being: https://github.com/seddonym/grimp/issues/62

Thanks @seddonym! I hope to test this soon!
