I edited my setup.py and added the following:
entry_points={
'console_scripts':[
'scorer = scorer.app.main'
]
},
As the main function is in scorer/app.py.
Now after running sudo python setup.py install, I can see that there is a
scorer binary installed in my system, but when I run that, I get the
following error.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/scorer", line 9, in <module>
load_entry_point('scorer==0.1', 'console_scripts', 'scorer')()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line
546, in load_entry_point
return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line
2666, in load_entry_point
return ep.load()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line
2339, in load
return self.resolve()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line
2345, in resolve
module = __import__(self.module_name, fromlist=['__name__'], level=0)
ImportError: No module named main
I am this close I guess!
As an aside, I would also suggest that you look at PEP8, the Python style
> guide[3]. Your code should really conform to it as much as possible.

And thanks a lot for giving me the PEP8 link, it will be helpful.
