Abstract

• you need virtualenv and zc.buildout to run tests.

• This recipe can be used to install python packages in a specific directory aLaDisutils way (python setup.py build && python setup.py install)

Specific options

Please look for options at : http://pypi.python.org/pypi/minitage.recipe.common#options-shared-by-all-the-recipes

• site-packages : where to drop the builded python files

Specific hooks

• pre_setup_hook : before python setup.py build dance is called

• pre_install_hook : before python setup.py install dance is called

• post_setup_hook : after python setup.py install dance is called

Let’s create a buildout configuration file

>>> rmdir(tempdir)
>>> mkdir(tempdir)
>>> cd(tempdir)
>>> a = [mkdir(d) for d in ('eggs', 'develop-eggs', 'bin', 'src')]
>>> install_develop_eggs(['minitage.recipe.du'])
>>> install_eggs_from_pathes(['zc.buildout'], sys.path)
>>> touch('buildout.cfg')
>>> sh('virtualenv --no-site-packages .')
virtualenv --no-site-packages .
Using real prefix '/usr'
New python executable in ./bin/python

Initializing test env.

>>> if not os.path.exists('foo'):
...     mkdir('foo')
... else:
...     rmdir(foo)
...     mkdir('foo')
>>> touch('foo/setup.py', data="""
... from setuptools import setup
... setup(name='foo', version='1.0')
...
... """)
>>> touch('foo/toto.py', data="""
... def f():
...     print "foo"
...
... """)
>>> noecho = [os.remove(d) for d in os.listdir('.') if '.tar.gz' in d]
>>> os.chdir('foo')
>>> sh('python setup.py sdist')
p...
>>> noecho = [shutil.copy(os.path.join('dist', d), os.path.join('..', d)) for d in os.listdir('dist')]
>>> os.chdir('..')

Installing “A la python setup.py install”

You can also install directly from urls. we ll use it to check the already present distribution files in the cache.

>>> data = """
... [buildout]
... parts=ez
... [ez]
... executable = ${buildout:directory}/bin/python
... recipe = minitage.recipe.du
... url = file://${buildout:directory}/foo-1.0.tar.gz
... site-packages=${buildout:directory}/myfoo
... """
>>> touch('buildout.cfg', data=data)
>>> sh('bin/buildout -vvvvvv install ez')
b...
