 The `--namespace` option is not available for this target, since the generated module declares no namespace.
 
+The following options are available to configure the generated output.

+#### Package
+```text
+--package
+```
+
+Specifies whether to generate the interface as a package. The interface is written as `__init__.py`, together with a `py.typed` marker that declares the package as typed, so the output directory alone determines the import path. An output directory of `src/mypackage/mydevice` produces the `mypackage.mydevice` package, so a device repository needs no re-export module. Without this option the interface is written as a single `device.py` module, and the same output directory produces `mypackage.mydevice.device`.

 ## Generating device firmware code
 
 Device firmware interface stubs can be generated by providing an additional metadata file, `ios.yml`, describing IO pin configuration. Currently only the [Harp Core ATxmega](https://harp-tech.org/core.atxmega/) is supported.
