Hello all, We're glad to announce the release of fades 7. fades is a system that automatically handles the virtualenvs in the cases normally found when writing scripts and simple programs, and even helps to administer big projects. It will automagically create a new virtualenv (or reuse a previous created one), installing the necessary dependencies, and execute your script inside that virtualenv. You only need to execute the script with fades (instead of Python) and also mark the required dependencies. More details here: http://fades.rtfd.org/ What's new in this release? - Pre-check if everything requested is really available in PyPI before starting to install them - Ignore duplicated dependencies - Several enhancements and fixes in the messages fades shows in verbose mode - Forbid fades misusing: installing it with legacy Python and running it from inside another virtualenv - Lot of project related improvements (not visible directly to final user, though) and some small bug fixes Nicolás and I want to say a big thank you to the following collaborators that helped to improve and enhance fades in different ways for this version (in alphabetical order): Evan - https://github.com/evandandrea Juan Carlos - https://github.com/juancarlospaco Rotem Yaari - https://github.com/vmalloc To install and enjoy fades... - If you are in Ubuntu or Debian, you can easily install like this (but probably won't get *latest* fades: sudo apt-get install fades - For not latest debian/ubuntu you have a .deb here (with checksum and signature): http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.deb http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.deb.sha1 http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.deb.asc - Install it in Arch is very simple: yaourt -S fades - In any Linux if you have the Snap system: snap install fades - Using pip if you want: pip3 install fades - You can always get the multiplatform tarball and install it in the old fashion way: wget http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.tar.gz tar -xf fades-latest.tar.gz cd fades-* sudo ./setup.py install Also have the checksum and signature, if interested: http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.tar.gz.sha1 http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.tar.gz.asc Help / questions: - You can ask any question or send any recommendation or request in the Telegram group: https://t.me/fadesmagic ...or to the mailing list... http://listas.python.org.ar/mailman/listinfo/fades ...or in the #fades IRC channel (in Freenode). - Also, you can open an issue here (please do if you find any problem!). https://github.com/PyAr/fades/issues/new - The project itself is in https://github.com/PyAr/fades It's very easy to run latest development version: git clone https://github.com/PyAr/fades.git cd fades bin/fades Thanks in advance for your time! -- .
