- Entry points are a way for Python packages to advertise objects with some
- common interface. The most common examples are ``console_scripts`` entry points,
- which define shell commands by identifying a Python function to run.
- *Groups* of entry points, such as ``console_scripts``, point to objects with
- similar interfaces. An application might use a group to find its plugins, or
- multiple groups if it has different kinds of plugins.
- The **entrypoints** module contains functions to find and load entry points.
- You can install it from PyPI with ``pip install entrypoints``.
- To advertise entry points when distributing a package, see
- `entry_points in the Python Packaging User Guide
- <https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/distributing.html#entry-points>`_.
