Packaging Your Code
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Packaging your code is important.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Python Developers
|
|
:::::::::::::::::::::
|
|
|
|
If you're writing an open source Python module, `PyPi <http://pypi.python.org>`_, more properly known as *The Cheeseshop*, is the place to host it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pip vs. easy_install
|

Personal PyPi
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to install packages from a source different from PyPI, (say, if
|
|
your packages are *proprietary*), you can do it by hosting a simple http server,
|
|
running from the directory which holds those packages which need to be installed.
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
Showing an example is always benificial
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Say if you are after installing a package called MyPackage.tar.gz, and assuming this is your directory structure
|
|
|
|
- archive
|
|
- MyPackage
|
|
- MyPackage.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
Go to your command prompt and type:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
$ cd archive
|
|
$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9000
|
|
|
|
This runs a simple http server running on port 9000 and will list down all packages(like **MyPackage**). Now you can install **MyPackage** using any python package installer. Using Pip, you would do it like:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
$ pip install --extra-index-url=http://127.0.0.1:9000/ MyPackage
|
|
|
|
Remember! having a folder with the same name as the package name is **crucia** here.
|
|
I got fooled by that, one time. But if you feel that creating a folder called
|
|
**MyPackag** and keeping **MyPackage.tar.gz** inside that, is *reduntant*, you can still install MyPackage using:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
$ pip install http://127.0.0.1:9000/MyPackage.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
