Introduction

OMERO.py provides a plugin infrastructure for CLI tools. Most tools are intended for the general user wanting to login to a running OMERO.server. Other plugins like this one are intended for the management of the installation itself.

Dependencies

Direct dependencies of this plugin are:

• OMERO.py

• ZeroC IcePy

Developer installation

omero-server `depends on OMERO.py. If you want a developer installation of OMERO.py, replace ``pip install omero-py` with instructions at https://github.com/ome/omero-py.

For a development installation we recommend creating a virtualenv with the following setup (example assumes python3.6 but you can create and activate the virtualenv using any compatible Python):

python3.6 -mvenv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install zeroc-ice==3.6.5
pip install omero-py          # OR dev install (see above)
git clone https://github.com/ome/omero-cli-server
cd omero-server
pip install -e .

This will install the server plugins into your virtualenv as an editable package, so any edits to source files should be reflected in your installation.

Note some tests may not run when this module and/or omero-py are installed in editable mode.

Running tests

Unit tests are located under the test directory and can be run with pytest.

Release process

This repository uses bump2version to manage version numbers. To tag a release run:

$ bumpversion release

This will remove the .dev0 suffix from the current version, commit, and tag the release.

To switch back to a development version run:

$ bumpversion --no-tag [major|minor|patch]

specifying major, minor or patch depending on whether the development branch will be a major, minor or patch release. This will also add the .dev0 suffix.

Remember to git push all commits and tags.
