Python API

import scitex_session as sess

# Decorator — wraps main() with auto-CLI, output dir, configs, RNG.
@sess.session
def main(CONFIG=sess.INJECTED, logger=sess.INJECTED, rng=sess.INJECTED):
    ...

# Manual lifecycle
sess.start(...)
sess.close(...)

# Class-style manager
mgr = sess.SessionManager()

Status

Standalone fork of scitex.session. Deps: matplotlib + scitex-dict / -logging / -repro / -str (already-standalone peer packages).

Decoupling notes:

• scitex.dict.DotDict → scitex_dict.DotDict
• scitex.repro.RandomStateManager / gen_ID → scitex_repro.*
• scitex.str.clean_path / printc → scitex_str.*
• scitex.logging.getLogger → stdlib logging.getLogger
• scitex.plt.utils._configure_mpl → optional via try/except with no-op fallback (matplotlib uses defaults if scitex umbrella isn't installed).
• scitex.utils._notify → optional via try/except (silent no-op fallback).

The umbrella package's scitex.session import path is preserved via a sys.modules-alias bridge.
