If you don't know what setup.cfg is, it's the simplest, easiest most bulletproof way to make Python 3 packages.
Here is how you do it.
Here is how you do it.
1 - Create a setup.py file containing a single line:
import setuptools; setuptools.setup()
It should be in the same dir as your importable lib. Not inside, not in a parent dir. Next to it.
Let's say your importable lib is called "cool_package". Now...
import setuptools; setuptools.setup()
It should be in the same dir as your importable lib. Not inside, not in a parent dir. Next to it.
Let's say your importable lib is called "cool_package". Now...
2 - Create also a setup.cfg containing your metadata. E.G:
[metadata]
name = cool_package
version = 0.0.1
description = "Cool"
long_description = "Super cool"
[options]
zip_safe = False
include_package_data = True
packages = find:
install_requires =
requests
flask
#etc
[metadata]
name = cool_package
version = 0.0.1
description = "Cool"
long_description = "Super cool"
[options]
zip_safe = False
include_package_data = True
packages = find:
install_requires =
requests
flask
#etc
3 - There is no 3, congrats you have a package.
You can now "pip install" it directly from the local dir or a remote git repository, build a wheel, upload it to pypi... Enjoy!
Yes, it was that easy.
