I think that by hooking into "data_files" I can be a bit less insane. What's
wrong with this? Other than that it writes
Writing /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/Spam_services-0.0.0-py2.6.egg-info
which isn't needed when there is no other Python code. But I can special case
that and bypass the setup mechanism entirely if there are no py_modules,
packages, or ext_modules given. (Am I missing something?)
from distutils.core import setup
def my_setup(**kwargs):
if "akara_extensions" in kwargs:
akara_extensions = kwargs["akara_extensions"]
if not isinstance(akara_extensions, list):
raise TypeError("akara_extensions must be a list of filenames")
del kwargs["akara_extensions"]
if "data_files" not in kwargs:
kwargs["data_files"] = []
data_files = kwargs["data_files"]
data_files.append( ("/tmp", akara_extensions) )
setup(**kwargs)
my_setup(name="Spam services",
#packages=["my_spam"],
akara_extensions = ["spam_extensions.py"],
)
