What is gp.vcsdevelop ?

This package allow you to checkout some package and use them as developed eggs with zc.buildout.

Available options

• develop-dir: a directory to checkout packages in

• vcs-extend-develop: A list of vcs url. See pip’s editable parameter. Available schemes are ssh, git, hg, bzr, sftp.

Usage

Use this package as a zc.buildout extension and provide some vcs urls in the vcs-extend-develop option:

>>> write('buildout.cfg','''
... [buildout]
... extensions=gp.vcsdevelop
... vcs-extend-develop=hg+https://[e-mail]/gawel/mercurialapp/@tip#egg=MercurialApp
... parts=
... ''')

Then if you run buildout, the package will be checkout from the repository:

>>> print system(buildout)
Cloning hg https://[e-mail]/gawel/mercurialapp/ (to revision tip) to ./MercurialApp
Develop: '/...buildout/MercurialApp'

Packages can be found in the develop-dir (default to .). You can override this:

>>> write('buildout.cfg','''
... [buildout]
... extensions=gp.vcsdevelop
... develop-dir=./src
... vcs-extend-develop=hg+https://[e-mail]/ianb/pip/@tip#egg=pip
... parts=
... ''')

>>> print system(buildout)
Cloning hg https://[e-mail]/ianb/pip/ (to revision tip) to ./src/pip
Develop: '/...buildout/./src/pip'
...

You can also checkout non-python packages but you’ll get a warning:

>>> write('buildout.cfg','''
... [buildout]
... extensions=gp.vcsdevelop
... develop-dir=./src
... vcs-extend-develop=git+git://github.com/schacon/hg-git.git#egg=hg-git
... parts=
... ''')

>>> print system(buildout).strip()
Cloning git://github.com/schacon/hg-git.git to ./src/hg-git
Warning: ./src/hg-git is not a python package
