PRR: Replace Skimage with custom functions #8
Description
I have recently replaced Skimage with a few of my own functions in one of my libraries so I could make it work on python 3.5 (the most recent version requires python 3.6+). When looking at this further and then attempting to install pypdn for python 3.5+ I ran into the following trouble:
Installing matplotlib (3.0.3) caused trouble in a windows environment. This falls under Skimage. I was surprised to see the crazy amount of dependencies it required when I was only using about two functions:
pypdn 1.0.5 Python package to read and write Paint.NET (PDN) images.
|-- aenum >=1.0
|-- numpy >=1.12
`-- scikit-image >=0.10
|-- imageio >=2.3.0
| |-- numpy *
| `-- pillow *
|-- matplotlib >=2.0.0,<3.0.0 || >3.0.0
| |-- cycler >=0.10
| | `-- six *
| |-- kiwisolver >=1.0.1
| |-- numpy >=1.11 (circular dependency aborted here)
| |-- pyparsing >=2.0.1,<2.0.4 || >2.0.4,<2.1.2 || >2.1.2,<2.1.6 || >2.1.6
| `-- python-dateutil >=2.1
| `-- six >=1.5 (circular dependency aborted here)
|-- networkx >=2.0
| `-- decorator >=4.3.0
|-- pillow >=4.3.0 (circular dependency aborted here)
|-- pywavelets >=0.4.0
| `-- numpy >=1.13.3 (circular dependency aborted here)
`-- scipy >=0.19.0
`-- numpy >=1.13.3 (circular dependency aborted here)
The question is would you accept a pull request that would replace these functions to reduce the number of dependencies required? (Pull Request Request - or PRR)
Thanks 😄
