I'm creating an egg for the PloneInvite product.
(https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Products.PloneInvite/)
I uploaded this to pypi as version 1.1 alpha.
When i add the line
Products.PloneInvite
to the 'eggs = ' list in a buildout and re-run buildout, i get
"While:
Installing instance.
Getting distribution for 'Products.PloneInvite'.
Error: Couldn't find a distribution for 'Products.PloneInvite'."
What i did:
To upload it to pypi, i checked out the trunk and ran 'python setup.py register'
per instructions in http://docs.python.org/distutils/packageindex.html
The product can be found in PyPi at
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Products.PloneInvite.
I tested in a virtualenv:
$ virtualenv venv_Products.PloneInvite
$ cd venv_Products.PloneInvite
$ . bin/activate
$ easy_install -v Products.PloneInvite
Searching for Products.PloneInvite
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/Products.PloneInvite/
Reading http://plone.org/products/plone-invite
Found link: http://partecs.com/downloads/PloneInvite-1.0.2.tar.gz
No local packages or download links found for Products.PloneInvite
error: Could not find suitable distribution for
Requirement.parse('Products.PloneInvite')
It seems it's redirecting to the product page on plone.org, where the only
stable release is redirecting to partecs.com. I would have expected easy_install
to use the version i uploaded to pypi, but clearly that isn't working.
When i change my buildout to use a filesystem version (checked out from svn,
added as a development egg, adding /path/to/svn/checkout to the buildout's
'develop =' list), the buildout does work, but i do not get to see version and
README.txt from the plone control panel (prefs_install_products_form). Maybe
that's a clue.
What am i doing wrong?
