Many applications implement their own +library for doing this, using __import__ or importlib. stevedore +avoids creating yet another extension mechanism by building on top +of setuptools entry points. The code for managing entry points tends +to be repetitive, though, so stevedore provides manager classes for +implementing common patterns for using dynamically loaded extensions. |
