Add charmcraft-specific versions of upstream python plugins
Metadata
Current evaluation
Request to add charmcraft-specific python/poetry plugins. Implemented by commit 8b748f3e (PR #1899) alongside #1873; the plugins are registered as 'python'/'poetry' in get_app_plugins() and have received later fixes (#1968, #2044, #2835).
Suggested action: close resolved
Reason: Commit 8b748f3e ('feat: add Python and Poetry plugins (#1899)') created charmcraft/parts/plugins/_python.py and _poetry.py, which subclass the upstream craft_parts plugins to skip installing '.' as a package, copy charm source/charmlibs into the venv, skip shebang rewriting, and add venv cleanup; get_app_plugins() in charmcraft/parts/__init__.py registers them under 'python' and 'poetry'. The sibling tracking issue #1873 was closed citing exactly this PR, and later commits 0db15c18, dd636296, 4dd1ae35 refine the same files, confirming the work landed and remains maintained.
