[issue31996] `setuptools.setup` parameter `py_modules` is undocumented
New submission from Luther Thompson <lutheroto@gmail.com>: I wrote my own distribution package with only one module, but the module file was not being installed along with the dist info file. I found by looking up the code for the `six` module that `setup` has a `py_modules` parameter which apparently must be used to make the installation work. This module is not mentioned anywhere in https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/distributing-packages/. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 305997 nosy: Luther Thompson, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: `setuptools.setup` parameter `py_modules` is undocumented type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31996> _______________________________________
