Looking at some of the packages I'm interested in, there's a couple ones
that don't use distutils. Of course, fixing this is best, but I'm
wondering if those can be installed as well. Typically you can install
these packages just by copying them into place.
So... thinking about the best way to do this. I think it should be
possible to simply create a kind of generic set of attributes... maybe
(very untested)...
def setup_args(package_dir):
attrs = {}
attrs['name'] = os.path.basename(package_dir)
dirs = []
os.path.walk(package_dir, (lambda arg, dirpath, names:
pkgs.append(dirpath)), None)
attrs['packages'] = [
attrs['name'] + '.' + d.replace('/', '.')
for d in dirs
if os.path.exists(os.path.join(package_dir, d, '__init__.py'))]
return attrs
Then somehow call distutils.core.setup(**attrs). And somehow
package_dir has to get passed in, but I haven't figured out how that
happens yet.
