+"""Repository rule py_workspace(), augmenting @rules_python, for relocating
+py_library() and py_package() files underneath a given Python namespace.
+
+The stock @rules_python py_library() -> py_package() -> py_wheel() BUILD file
+workflow packages files at Python package paths set to the source paths of the
+files relative to the workspace root. This has a several problems. Firstly, it
+implies that files must be located underneath a source directory with the same
+name as the desired Python namespace package. ( py_wheel.strip_path_prefixes
+can remove path components, but cannot add them.) This is not always feasible
+or desirable.
+
+Secondly, this path naming is incompatible with the PYTHONPATH set by
+@rules_python when executing Python programs in the source tree via
+py_binary(). PYTHONPATH is set such that imports should begin with the
+WORKSPACE name, followed by the path from the workspace root. py_wheel(),
+however, packages files such that imports use only the path from the workspace
+root.
+
+For example, the source file:
+    example/hello.py
+is imported by a py_binary() running in the source tree as:
+    `import workspace_name.example.hello`
+but must be imported from within the package created by py_wheel() as:
+    `import example.hello`
+
+The end result is that code cannot be written to work both in the source tree
+and installed in a Python environment via a package.
+
+py_namespace() fixes these problems by providing the means to package files
+within a Python package namespace without adding a corresponding directory in
+the source tree. The BUILD workflow changes to py_libary() -> py_package() ->
+**py_namespace()** -> py_wheel(). For example:
+
+```
+    # in example/BUILD
+
+    py_library(
+        name = "library",
+        srcs = ["hello.py"],
+        deps = ...,
+    )
+
+    py_package(
+        name = "package",
+        deps = [":library"],
+    )
+
+    py_namespace(
+        name = "namespace",
+        deps = [":package"],
+        namespace = "foo",
+    )
+
+    py_wheel(
+        ....
+        deps = [":namespace"],
+    )
+```
+
+In this case, the source file:
+    example/hello.py
+which is imported by a py_binary() running in the source tree as:
+    `import workspace_name.example.hello`
+is imported from the package created by py_wheel() as:
+    `import foo.example.hello`
+
+If the namespace and the WORKSPACE name match, the import paths used when
+running in the source tree will match the import paths used when installed in
+the Python environment.
+
+Furthermore, the Python package can be given an __init__.py file via the
+attribute `init`. The given file is relocated directly under the namespace as
+__init__.py, regardless of its path in the source tree. This __init__.py can be
+used for, among other things, providing a user-friendly public API: providing
+aliases for modules otherwise deeply nested in subpackages due to their
+location in the source tree.
