Hi Ronald, I was wondering why 'plugin' and 'app' are no py2app options? There is no other setup command needing them, I guess. I patched py2app/ build_app.py, to have 'plugin' and 'app' as real py2app-options. That gives the opportunity to define them through setup.cfg as well, they will be listed via --help etc.
This is my patch: --- build_app.py 2007-08-29 13:32:15.000000000 +0200 +++ my_build_app.py 2007-08-29 13:33:49.000000000 +0200 @@ -12,6 +12,7 @@ import plistlib import shlex from cStringIO import StringIO +from types import ListType, TupleType from setuptools import Command from distutils.util import convert_path @@ -105,6 +106,12 @@ def FixupTargets(targets, default_attribute): if not targets: return targets + try: + targets = eval(targets) + except: + pass + if type(targets) not in (ListType, TupleType): + targets = [targets] ret = [] for target_def in targets: if isinstance(target_def, basestring): @@ -145,8 +152,11 @@ # List of option tuples: long name, short name (None if no short # name), and help string. - user_options = [ + ("app=", None, + "???"), + ("plugin=", None, + "???"), ('optimize=', 'O', "optimization level: -O1 for \"python -O\", " "-O2 for \"python -OO\", and -O0 to disable [default: -O0]"), @@ -227,6 +237,8 @@ ] def initialize_options (self): + self.app = None + self.plugin = None self.bdist_base = None self.xref = False self.graph = False @@ -820,8 +832,8 @@ dist = self.distribution # Convert our args into target objects. - dist.app = FixupTargets(dist.app, "script") - dist.plugin = FixupTargets(dist.plugin, "script") + dist.app = FixupTargets(self.app, "script") + dist.plugin = FixupTargets(self.plugin, "script") if dist.app and dist.plugin: # XXX - support apps and plugins? raise DistutilsOptionError( What do you think about that? I'm pretty new to py2app. So maybe I missed something.
