Install and managing tool for egg-based packages
Project description
The Enstaller (version 4) project is a package management and installation tool for egg-based Python distributions.
Installation
The preferred and easiest way to install Enstaller is from the executable egg, i.e. the Enstaller egg contains a bash header and on Unix systems you can download the egg and type:
$ bash enstaller-4.6.1-1.egg Bootstrapping: ... 283 KB [.................................................................]
Once Enstaller is installed, it can update itself. Note that, as Enstaller is the install tool for the Enthought Python Distribution (EPD), all EPD installers already include Enstaller.
Available features
Enstaller consists of the sub-packages enstaller (package management tool) and egginst (package (un)installation tool).
enstaller
enstaller is a management tool for egginst-based installs. The CLI, called enpkg, calls out to egginst to do the actual installation. Enpkg is concerned with resolving dependencies, managing user configuration and fetching eggs reliably.
egginst
egginst is the underlying tool for installing and uninstalling eggs. It installs modules and packages directly into site-packages, i.e. no .egg directories are created.
