I think I have resolved the issue using package_data. The following code
needed to be included in the setup.py script.
See
https://docs.python.org/3.6/distutils/setupscript.html#installing-package-data
setup(
...
package_dir={'mypkg': 'mypkg'},
package_data={'mypkg': ['static/*.js']}
)
Let me know if this is the desired configuration of the setup.py file. If
so I can sumbit a pull request on the appropriate doc, which I believe
is
