Creating a library of components

warning

This feature is considered in a preview stage and is under active development. It can change significantly, or be removed completely. It is not considered ready for production use.

To let the dg CLI know that your Python package contains component types, update your pyproject.toml file with the following configuration:

[tool.dg]
is_component_lib = true

By default, it is assumed that all component types will be defined in your_package.lib. If you'd like to define your components in a different directory, you can specify this in your pyproject.toml file:

[tool.dg]
is_component_lib = true
component_lib_package="your_package.other_module"

Once this is done, as long as this package is installed in your environment, you'll be able to use the dg command-line utility to interact with your component types.
