Guys,
We have several overcomplicated places in our iso build system. It produces pain for developers and for anyone who wants to build custom iso. On of the places is in eggs requirements lists. We have two requirements files for the iso: https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-main/blob/master/requirements-eggs.txt https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-library/blob/master/deployment/puppet/nailgun/files/venv-ostf.txt And we have several python modules installed from eggs: nailgun, with dep-list in https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/nailgun/requirements.txt shotgun with dep-list hardcoded in https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/shotgun/setup.py ostf with dep-list hardcoded in https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-ostf/blob/master/setup.py fuelclient with dep-list hardcoded in https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/fuelclient/setup.py And by default pypi packages are taken from our mirrors, where we have packages only for current master. It is inconvenient because everyone has to keep in mind this information in order to build an iso or update module dependencies. I have a proposal to keep requirements.txt files next to sources, update our build system for use of this files. And learn our build system to use global pypi database as a fallback for missed packages. As an option, ostf requirements.txt can be split into several parts in order to keep savanna/murano/heat clients dependencies separately. Possible issues: Because dependencies usually are written in ">=" format, we will get latest versions of modules. Solution: use "==" format in requirement.txt files. OSTF installation can be broken because for some unclear reason it requires installation of dependencies in one pip run and installation of the module in another. Solution: create venv-ostf.txt file during build time. We will get bunch of versions for every single module. Solution is not required, python is ok with it. I think this will be done with little effort and will make our life easier for next three months.
