The libloot repo's Python wrapper is experimental and may not be kept, so link to a specific commit that has it and word the message to be true even if the wrapper is removed in the future.
So that the wrapper library can be installed with `pip install
<archive>`. The setup.py is Windows-specific, but CI only
produces Windows builds so that's not currently an issue.
The __init__.py re-exports the .pyd module so that the .pyd and
.dll can be installed into a subdirectory of site-packages for
neatness, and so that the installed module isn't just to work
around pip install being unable to install a pyd with no package.
This is a breaking change:
- LanguageCode has been removed
- The SimpleMessage Python class is now "SimpleMessage", from "Message"
- DatabaseInterface::sort_plugins() has been removed
- DatabaseInterface::get_plugin_messages() has been replaced with
DatabaseInterface::get_plugin_metadata() followed by
PluginMetadata::get_simple_messages()
- set_logging_verbosity(), set_log_file() and initialise_locale() have
been added
Not everything in the v0.11 API has been wrapped, to limit the potential
for future breaking changes.
The PluginTags struct and PluginCleanliness enum and their associated
functions have been re-implemented as part of the Python wrapper as they
were removed from the API due to no longer exposing any additional
functionality but are still useful.
