1. Install the dev dependencies in your virtual environment

$ pip install --upgrade setuptools
$ python setup.py install develop

The setuptools pakage must be upgraded (as shown above) because the version that is pre-packaged with Python 3.6 causes problems when running the tests.

When you get a PYTHONPATH error, use the install-dir argument:

$ python setup.py install develop --install-dir venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages

2. Run the tests

The test suite and test coverage are run as follows:

$ python setup.py test

The Python style checker Flake8 can be run as follows:

$ python setup.py flake8

3. Example configuration and usage

python -m objecstore.databasedumps /backups/postgres.dump objectstore_dir --upload-db

uploads given dump with a date and environment informtion to objectstore

python -m objecstore.databasedumps downloaddir objectstore_dir --download-db

Dowload latest dump with the name database.environment.latestdate.dump from given environmnet with from location directory in objectstore. - WILL DELETE OLD DUMPS more then 20 days old.
