Topic: Is there a lighter ScientificTypes convetion?


view this post on Zulip Davi Sales Barreira (Jan 28 2022 at 16:58):

I want to use the ScientificTypes convetion in a package I'm developing, but the original ScientificTypes.jl comes with too many dependencies heavy, such as Distributions.jl. I was wondering if there is a way to use the convention types without requiring such dependencies. I mean, I'm looking ScientificTypesBase.jl, but it seems that it does not come with the default convention.

I have similar complaints regarding the decision that the default convention is only shipped in the main package. Try to comment on the issue sharing your concerns and maybe maintainers can change their mind

Will do. Ended up using ScientificTypesBase.jl and creating my own dispatches.
