[FR] Loading/disabling plugins conditionally #1702

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm integrating Cython.Coverage in the @aio-libs projects. It works fine for CPython but crashes on PyPy. This is because CoverageWarning is emitted and pytest is configured with filterwarnings = error (coveragepy is integrated through pytest-cov).

In projects, where we use Cython, we normally maintain a fallback pure-python implementation. So in CI we run tests with and without C-extensions to cover these cases. Cython.Coverage is added to .coveragerc statically and gets picked up even when we test pure-python builds.
That works fine on CPython, there's just no matches for PYX files since they aren't measured.
It explodes on PyPy, though. For PyPy, we always disable building C-extensions, so it's always pure-python.

But since the config is static, and the plugin is needed for other envs, we're stuck with coveragepy picking it up when it's undesired.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think, there's a need for dynamically enabling and disabling plugins:

  • a CLI arg
  • a public API interface arg (so things like pytest-cov could integrate it seamlessly)
  • an environment variable

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Putting a no-op module with the same import signature shadowing the actual plugin into $PYTHONPATH and auto-injecting that on PyPy, using some wrapper.
  • Using sed -i 's/^plugins = .*//g' in CI.

I extracted the traceback since GHA logs get garbage-collected over time:
