package loader for auto installing Python packages.
Project description
package loader for auto installing Python packages.
A package loader in the spirit of Zero Install that can be used to
inject dependencies into the import process. Autoinstall can be
bootstraped with the nascent package loader bootstrap module. For
example::
try:
_version = "0.1a"
import autoinstall
if autoinstall.__version__ != _version:
raise ImportError("A different version than exprected found.")
except ImportError, e:
# http://svn.python.org/projects/sandbox/trunk/bootstrap/bootstrap.py
import bootstrap
pypi = "http://pypi.python.org"
dir = "packages/source/a/autoinstall"
url = "%s/%s/autoinstall-%s.tar.gz" % (pypi, dir, _version)
bootstrap.main((url,))
import autoinstall
# once imported you can bind any top level package name to a URL
# pointing to something that can be imported using the zipimporter
autoinstall.bind("pymarc", "http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.5/p/pymarc/pymarc-2.1-py2.5.egg")
import pymarc
print pymarc.__version__, pymarc.__file__
