What variables do colcon.pkg and setup.cfg accept?

Hi,

I am building a python colcon package and would like to understand the variables supported by the files colcon.pkg and setup.cfg.

As per the example in ROS2 docs here , setup.cfg has a variable called $base in it.

I also have an environment hook that I am installing through setup.py and defining it in colcon.pkg.

Is there a variable for the package name, just like $base, that can be used instead of explicitly defining it the above files? Also I would like to know where can I find the reference to all allowed variables for both these files.

Thanks,

Arpit

colcon.pkgfiles are documented here: https://colcon.readthedocs.io/en/rele...

setup.cfgfiles are not specific to ROS / colcon but are from Python setuptools: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3...
