-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm new to distutils/and the egg system. I have not researched the archives as much as I should, so please excuse me if this is familiar territory... Q: Is it possible for dependency checks to work for non pipy deployed eggs? - A.egg - B.egg (setup_requires and install_requires A.egg) - email A and B eggs to friend - tell friend to : easy_install B - but B.egg does not install A...in fact, in my test case, it fails b/c it cannot find A in pipy - in this example, what happens if friend does not have net connection on target machine? how can they install from the eggs alone and get the dep checking to work? Q: How does my friend run the unittests on the egg that they have just installed? As I am developing, I frequently run the unittests and after every bdist_egg build, I also run the unit tests that way, too. How can the consumer do the same? Q: One of my apps is a command line app, say foo.py is a command line app that takes arg1, arg2,... How can the user run this app when it is encased in an egg? Q: How do I define my own pipy? While I like the idea of deploying there for the overall community, I don't want to send my half baked code into the wild. But I'd like to try the general functionality of having a deploy site for my beta customers. How can I set this up? Thanks in advance. - -Todd -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDl9Hfz6uXX4lQc/URAnY4AJ47DFHL/cpEltmqoUyGqzhsK5FjRACgt01v akc3Wh3IOXVv2jiS8TszhuE= =Rv/x -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
