Hello, community, I work for a python/Django shop (we run supposedly one of the largest Django apps out there), and we're just starting to use Puppet for handling python stuff (and hopefully application deploys, eventually). We're currently using a hacked up version of Mozilla RelEng's excellent and quite helpful python module to handle virtualenv creation and pip package installation - but the module (or at least our version of it) doesn't handle requirements files, and uses a define to pip install packages, so a given package can only be installed in one venv on a node.
Is anyone aware of a better, more complete python/virtualenv module? I've seen stankevich/python on the forge, which handles requirements files but doesn't fix the issue with only being able to install a given package once per node (which, AFAIK, can be fixed with a native provider but not a defined type). If not, does anyone have interest in collaborating or contributing to a more feature-complete python/virtualenv module? If anyone's interested in collaborating, or can suggest an existing module (stankevich's? or moz releng?) to start with, I've spoken with one of the pip/virtualenv maintainers and he's interested in finding something suitable that could become the "official" module. Thanks for any advice, input or suggestions, Jason Antman jantman (ccing djmitche as I can't find a mozilla releng email list) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
