Description
Assume we have 4 stages:
- Stages
0
and2
depend on the functionfoo
- Stages
1
and3
depend on the functionbar
In order to reduce code duplication we want to put the utilities foo
and bar
in one place; let them be in utils.py
. So, utils.py
becomes a dependency of all four stages.
Now... after some time we realize we have to update something in bar
. So we edit utils.py
. This, in turn, invalidate all stages. Obviously, a simple solution is to have utils_0_2.py
which will be a dependency of 0
and 2
and similarly utils_1_3.py
. But this solution conflicts with good practices of coding.
A possible solution could be to adopt some notation like the one used in pytest
and specify the function inside utils.py
. For example, something like:
deps:
- md5: 409a438ee6ac70fc1f911631412325ea
path: utils.py::foo
This is a continuation of this discussion.
