# Define entry points in our package metadata. Keys should be fully qualified
# names of modules or (unbound) classes within PsychoPy (eg.
# 'psychopy.visual.Rect'). Values are used to specify which attributes of those
# objects to create or modify. For instance, our `get_area` function in the
# `psychopy_demo_plugin` module will be assigned as attribute `getArea` in the
# `psychopy.visual.Rect` class. After the plugin is loaded, any instances of
# `Rect` will have that method.

# Define the name for your package, this will be used when calling `loadPlugin`.
# Note, for packages containing only a single module defining objects to export,
# you should name it something based off this name of the project to avoid
# import collisions with other packages, here we call it `psychopy_demo_plugin`.

# Define entry points. PsychoPy's plugin framework scans packages and looks for
# entry points advertised in the package metadata which pertains to PsychoPy.
# Entry points are a dictionary, where keys are fully qualified names to
# modules and unbound classes which you want to add/modify attributes. Values
# can be single strings, or lists of strings specifying what attributes of those
# PsychoPy objects are to reference objects defined in the plugin module.
