Description

This is a little involved... bear with me ;).

To avoid module naming collisions, I'm using a toplevel namespaced package majqa, of which "webapp" containing app.py is a submodule, as is a submodule named 'github'...

majqa
    utils
    store
    kubernetes     (module containing k8s logic...)
    github              (module containing github logic...)
    webapp           (module containing app = Fastapi(...) in app.py
    ...

When invoking fastapi run .../majqa/webapp to start the service, sys.path get's prefixed to include the majqa namespace module path, i think here...

In subsequent code, I'm trying to import symbols from the PyGithub package....

from github import Github, Auth

However, due to the manipulated path...

(Pdb) print(sys.path)
['/opt/app-root/lib/python3.12/site-packages/majqa', '/opt/app-root/bin', '/usr/lib64/python312.zip',  ...]

... I'm accessing my majqa.github module, instead of PyGithub's github module.

I'm using workarounds to solve the problem, but am wondering is it reasonable to ask... If fastapi-cli feels the need to unconventionally manipulate sys.path to startup, can it restore it once it's done using it?

Thanks for any feedback!
