Yeah, this is why setup.py sucks ;-)
I've just been doing some build and release tools for a customer that
involve this sort of stuff, I resorted to:
with nested(Replacer(),OutputCapture()) as (r,o):
r.replace('sys.argv',['X','egg_info'])
try:
sys.path.insert(0,path)
curdir = os.getcwd()
os.chdir(path)
# yuk, but setup.py is yuk anyway!
if 'setup' in sys.modules:
del sys.modules['setup']
import setup
finally:
os.chdir(curdir)
sys.path.pop(0)
..in my tests, the del from sys.modules is to allow this to by done
multiple times in one process.
Replacer is
http://packages.python.org/testfixtures/mocking.html#the-context-manager
OutputCapture looks like:
class OutputCapture:
def __enter__(self):
self.original_stdout = sys.stdout
self.original_stderr = sys.stderr
self.output = sys.stdout = sys.stderr = StringIO()
return self
def __exit__(self,*args):
sys.stdout = self.original_stdout
sys.stderr = self.original_stderr
def compare(self,expected):
compare(expected.strip(),self.output.getvalue().strip())
Having to
invoke another Python interpreter in a subshell because that's too
complicated to do any other way is awful.
Yeah, I do resort to this for some things too ;-)

Maybe this gets you a bit further:
import os
from setuptools.sandbox import run_setup
package = os.path.join(os.curdir, 'zope.component')
os.chdir(package)
run_setup('setup.py', ['--long-description'])
os.chdir(os.pardir)
The run_setup call seems to dump the output to sys.stdout which might
be a bit painful to grab.

Currently, the documentation builder does not do any introspection on the package itself, mostly because I do not want to fully install the package and pull in all dependencies. Maybe there's a simple way that does not require full installation. I agree. This does not build the package: python setup.py --long-description Can someone tell me how to do that when I am in Python code already? Given the path to the checkout, can I use some setuptools/pkg_resources or pkginfo magic to get at this data? My specific problem is this: Many packages define an intermediate folder, like src, in which the actual code path is stored. When someone runs setup.py egg_info then the .egg-info folder ends up in src and not at the root. Trying to use e.g. pkginfo.Develop or pkg_resources.find_distributions with the root folder won't find the .egg-info folder in the src subfolder. I'd have to do something horrible like os.walk to find distributions, which I really don't want. jens -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAkxW41sACgkQRAx5nvEhZLIrzgCeMVQhPaa0QwSZriPxyzTkyApk 6kIAoIbmZ19Rhq4nKOksK5byw5FAwsyg =d3W2 -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Oh, this is where I always get scared because I always get lost. :)
The pkg_resources documentation is here:
http://packages.python.org/distribute/pkg_resources.html
You can probably create a Distribution object somehow (handwave) from a
path (whether that's the path of the package or the path the package is
in, not sure).
Then maybe 'get_metadata('long_description') on the distribution object,
but maybe not as one seems to have to supply metadata when constructing
a distribution..
But again, I always get lost here, perhaps you need an Environment or a
WorkingSet first, etc.

Martijn
