I have a flask blueprint that I'm pushing to GitHub as a separate repo. Then I install it via
pip install git@httpps://....
I get the package in my venv and it's all good I can import code etc.
However there is an issue. I don't see HTML/CSS/js files that are visible on GitHub.
I found similar errors on here but the solutions that I tested don't work. Maybe there is an error in my folder structure (if so how to do it correctly? flask needs to see them too) maybe it's something different.
Here is my folder structure all of the folders have init.py
src
updater
SWupdater
templates
static
js
*.js
css
external_css
*.css
*.css
images
*.jpg
SWupdater
*.html
This is my setup without names/descriptions etc
setuptools.setup(
packages=setuptools.find_packages(where='src', exclude=["*.tests", "*.tests.*"]),
package_dir={"updater": "src/updater"},
zip_safe=False,
include_package_data=True,
install_requires=[],
classifiers=[],
python_requires='>=3.7'
)
What I've tried to do in my setup.py
-added package_data
package_data={"updater/SWupdater/templates": ["SWUpdater/*"],
"updater/SWupdater/templates/static":["css/*", "images/*", "js/*"]},
-added include_package_data
include_package_data=True,
-a combination of package_data/include -line order combination (one higher one lower)
I do not build this package, I only push it to GitHub and install it into my venv

For anyone looking for answers.
- you don't need package_data in setup.py
- you need manifest.in
In my case I've created manifest with this line
recursive-include src\updater\SWupdater\templates\* .
to include all html/css/js files
