Description
SourceKind, used to distinguish between imported modules currently has three variants.
planFunctionsfor modules containing plansdodalfor modules containing device functions that are called via dodal's make_all_devices and assume DeviceInitializationControllersdeviceFunctionsthe previous version for devices that is now an alias fordodal.
Now that there is about to be an alternative to dodal modules in the device manager, should we
- Create a new source type,
deviceManagerto support the new loading - Convert all beamlines at once and use
dodalfor the new loading - Stop
deviceFunctionsdelegating tododaland use it for the new loading
I'm currently erring towards 1. I think 2 would cause chaos and we should have at least a brief transition period where both are supported. 3 could work but are any beamlines currently relying on it being an alias to dodal?
If we don't re-use deviceFunctions, could we remove it entirely?
