**Beartype metadata.**
This submodule exports global constants synopsizing this package -- including
versioning and dependencies.
Python Version
--------------
For uniformity between this codebase and the ``setup.py`` setuptools script
importing this module, this module also validates the version of the active
Python 3 interpreter. An exception is raised if this version is insufficient.
As a tradeoff between backward compatibility, security, and maintainability,
this package strongly attempts to preserve compatibility with the first stable
release of the oldest version of CPython still under active development. Hence,
obsolete and insecure versions of CPython that have reached their official End
of Life (EoL) (e.g., Python 3.5) are explicitly unsupported.

#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
# CAUTION: To avoid accidental importation of optional runtime dependencies
# (e.g., "typing-extensions") at installation time *BEFORE* the current package
# manager has installed those dependencies, this module may *NOT* import from
# any submodules of the current package. This includes *ALL* "beartype._util"
# submodules, most of which import from "beartype.typing", which conditionally
# imports optional runtime dependencies under certain contexts.
#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
# CAUTION: To avoid race conditions during setuptools-based installation, this
# module may import *ONLY* from modules guaranteed to exist at the start of
# installation. This includes all standard Python and package modules but
# *NOT* third-party dependencies, which if currently uninstalled will only be
# installed at some later time in the installation.
#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
# CAUTION: To avoid polluting the public module namespace, external attributes
# should be locally imported at module scope *ONLY* under alternate private
# names (e.g., "from argparse import ArgumentParser as _ArgumentParser" rather
# than merely "from argparse import ArgumentParser").

# Validate the version of the active Python interpreter *BEFORE* subsequent

# validated both at setuptools-based install time and post-install runtime
# *AND* since this module is imported sufficiently early by both, stash this
# validation here to avoid duplication of this logic and hence the hardcoded
# Python version.
#
# The "sys" module exposes three version-related constants for this purpose:
# * "hexversion", an integer intended to be specified in an obscure (albeit
# both efficient and dependable) hexadecimal format: e.g.,
# >>> sys.hexversion
# 33883376
# >>> '%x' % sys.hexversion
# '20504f0'

# >>> sys.version
# 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul 31 2008, 17:28:52)
# [GCC 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)]
# * "version_info", a tuple of three or more integers *OR* strings: e.g.,
# >>> sys.version_info
# (2, 5, 2, 'final', 0)
#
# For sanity, this package will *NEVER* conditionally depend upon the

# that tuple are guaranteed to be integers *AND* since a comparable 3-tuple of
# integers is declared above, comparing the former and latter yield the
# simplest and most reliable Python version test.
#
# Note that the nearly decade-old and officially accepted PEP 345 proposed a
# new field "requires_python" configured via a key-value pair passed to the
# call to setup() in "setup.py" (e.g., "requires_python = ['>=2.2.1'],"), that

# * "{major}" specifies the major version, incremented only when either:

# But this is the real world. In the real world, significant improvements
# are rewarded with significant version changes.
# In either case, the minor and patch versions both reset to 0.
# * "{minor}" specifies the minor version, incremented only when implementing
# customary functionality in a manner preserving such compatibility. In this
# case, the patch version resets to 0.
# * "{patch}" specifies the patch version, incremented only when correcting
# outstanding issues in a manner preserving such compatibility.

Name of the third-party Sphinx extension providing the custom HTML theme

#. The open issues and pull requests (PRs).
#. The most GitHub stars as a crude proxy for aggregate rating.
#. **IS NOT STRONGLY OPINIONATED** (i.e., is configurable with standard Sphinx
settings and directives).
Furo
----------
Furo_ handily bested all other themes across the first three criteria. Furo is
very well-maintained, frequently closes out open issues and merges open PRs, and
sports the highest quantity of GitHub stars by an overwhelming margin. Sadly,
Furo handily loses against literally unmaintained themes across the final
criteria. Furo is absurdly strongly opinionated to an authoritarian degree we
rarely find in open-source software. Why? Because it's principal maintainer is.
Like maintainer, like software. Furo routinely ignores standard Sphinx settings
and directives due to subjective opinions held by its maintainer, including:
* Most user-defined ``:toctree:`` settings used to configure both global and
local tables of contents (TOCs) and thus the leftmost navigation sidebar,
effectively preventing users from using that sidebar to navigate to anything.
We are *not* kidding. ``:toctree:`` settings ignored by Furo include:
* ``:maxdepth:``. Internally, Furo forces the ``:titlesonly:`` setting by
passing ``titles_only=True`` to Sphinx's ``toctree()`` function at runtime.
Doing so effectively coerces ``:maxdepth: 1``, thus intentionally hiding
*all* document structure from the navigation sidebar -- where (usually)
*all* document structure is displayed. Users thus have no means of directly
jumping from the root landing page to child leaf documents, significantly
obstructing user experience (UX) and usability. See also this `feature
request <Furo discussion_>`__ to relax these constraints, to which the Furo
maintainer caustically replies:
No, there isn't any (supported) way to do this.
Separating the page content hierarchy and site structure was an explicit
design goal.
We fundamentally disagree with those goals and have thus permanently switched
away from Furo. Unjustified opinions are the little death of sanity.
PyData
======
Furo and PyData are neck-and-neck with respect to git commit history; both are
extremely well-maintained. Furo leaps ahead with respect to both issue and PR
resolution, however; PyData has an extreme number of open issues and PRs, where
Furo enjoys none. Moreover, Furo also enjoys dramatically more GitHub stars.
Nonetheless, PyData is *not* strongly opinionated; Furo is. PyData does *not*
silently ignore standard Sphinx settings and directives for largely indefensible
reasons. Consequently, PyData wins by default. In fact, *any* other theme
(including even unmaintained dead themes) wins by default; *no* other theme (to
my limited knowledge) forcefully ignores standard Sphinx settings and directives
to the extent that Furo does.
PyData wins by *literally* doing nothing. Laziness prevails. All hail La-Z-Boy.

requirements strings of the format ``{project_name}
{comparison1}{version1},...,{comparisonN}{versionN}``.
For flexibility, these dependencies are loosely relaxed to enable developers to
build with *any* versions satisfying at least the bare minimum. For the same
reason, optional documentation build-time package dependencies are omitted.
Since our documentation build system emits a non-fatal warning for each missing
optional dependency, omitting these optional dependencies here imposes no undue
hardships while improving usability.

**Mandatory Read The Docs (RTD) documentation build-time package dependencies**
(i.e., dependencies required to automatically build documentation for this
package from the third-party RTD hosting service) as a tuple of
:mod:`setuptools`-specific requirements strings of the format ``{project_name}
{comparison1}{version1},...,{comparisonN}{versionN}``.
For consistency, these dependencies are strictly constrained to force RTD to
build against a single well-tested configuration known to work reliably.

**Mandatory developer package dependencies** (i.e., dependencies required to
develop and meaningfully contribute pull requests for this package) as a tuple
of :mod:`setuptools`-specific requirements strings of the format
``{project_name} {comparison1}{version1},...,{comparisonN}{versionN}``.
This tuple includes all mandatory test- and documentation build-time package
dependencies and is thus a convenient shorthand for those lower-level tuples.
