Pull Request Overview
This PR introduces lazy loading for the public API attributes in the django_odata package to prevent early imports of Django and Django REST Framework dependencies during package initialization. This helps avoid issues with Django app registry and settings before apps are fully configured.
Key Changes
- Replaced direct imports with a lazy loading mechanism using module-level
__getattr__ - Created a mapping dictionary to associate public API names with their source modules
- Fixed pytest.ini configuration to use the correct
[pytest]section header
