Hi,i'm new to this list. I hope this question is pertinent to the list, if not please address me to a more appropriate one. I'd like to understand what is the preferred way to cope with demo examples/directory while packaging. I have a classic structure sqlkit-N.n/ sqlkit/ setup.py MANIFEST.in demo/ My goal would be to have a setup so that 'python setup.py sdist' would package also the demo, so that 'python setup.py sdist upload' could be all I need to do to publish it. Is this a reasonable goal?
Yes. Just include demo in your MANIFEST.in.
I ask this as I wouldn't know where to place the demo in the target installation.
Well, if you just want to package it in the sdist, you don't need to have a place to install it. If the user wants to run the demo, they can just run it from the unpacked sdist, no?
