[Repoze-dev] [issue141] repoze.what's setup.py should exclude tests from find_packages() call

[Gustavo Narea]

Gustavo Narea  added the comment:

Even though the test suite was not included anyway thanks to the MANIFEST.in
file, I just added the `exclude' argument to exclude it from the package
metadata and released it to PYPI.

I like not including the tests and the documentation in the final distribution
because I think it's just a waste of space/bandwidth. In a small package like
this, these two things are almost twice as big as the actual package.

But I don't have strong feelings about it, so I wouldn't mind changing this if
people want me to -- Feel free to start a discussion on the mailing list.

[Repoze-dev] [issue141] repoze.what's setup.py should exclude tests from find_packages() call

It was specifically repoze.what.plugins.sa that was causing a problem for me,
but there may be other's that I have not run into yet. Moving the tests as a
sub-package would certainly make it more package manager friendly. 

For my case, I will probably still exclude the tests to save flash space on the
device.

Tres Seaver  added the comment:

I don't think there are any other repoze.* packages except for repoze.what that
follow the "tests outside the package" pattern.

My preferred fix would be to move the repoze.what tests into a sub-package of
repoze.what.
