scm-app: allow to set documented pyro4 as scm_app_implementation. The documented ini setting allows to set pyro4 as scm_app, while the backend code crashes on import of pyro4 module. This change allows to configure the app based on the .ini docs. if we pass pyro4 as backedn, we simply skip import and use the default pyro4 scm_app

API

Naming conventions

We keep the calls in the form {verb}_{noun}.

Change and Deprecation

API deprecation is documented in the section :ref:`deprecated` together with other notes about deprecated parts of the application.

Deprecated API calls

  • Make sure to add them into the section :ref:`deprecated`.

  • Use deprecated inside of the call docstring to make our users aware of the deprecation:

    .. deprecated:: 1.2.3
    
       Use `new_call_name` instead to fetch this information.
    
  • Make sure to log on level logging.WARNING a message that the API call or specific parameters are deprecated.

  • If possible return deprecation information inside of the result from the API call. Use the attribute _warning_ to contain a message.

Changed API calls

  • If the change is significant, consider to use versionchanged in the docstring:

    .. versionchanged:: 1.2.3
    
       Optional explanation if reasonable.
    

Added API calls

  • Use versionadded to document since which version this API call is available:

    .. versionadded:: 1.2.3
    
       Optional explanation if reasonable.
