PyPI package contains dev dependencies #1811

Description

@beatreichenbach

The current PyPI package contains development dependencies that add a lot of unneeded data for everyday installations.

Currently the setup includes tests and test data that is not needed by normal users and should only be made available for developers.

Could it be possible to consider an approach with optional dependencies, where setuptools is used to specify dev dependencies?
For example: pip install opencolorio[dev]

If that is too much work, I think it would make more sense to just include the dev dependencies in the github repo and not distribute it to every installation to keep the package more light weight.
