Hi,
Let suppose that we have package aaa and subpackage bbb and we are going
to write setup.py for bbb using setuptools:
extra = dict(
namespace_packages=["aaa", "aaa.bbb"],
zip_safe = False,
install_requires = ['setuptools'],
)
if __name__=="__main__":
setup(name="aaa.bbb",
version="0.0.1",
description="Dummy example subpackage",
author="Mr. Nemo",
url="http://www.the.way.org/to/hell",
author_email="MrNemo at the.way.org",
packages=['aaa.bbb'],
license='BSD',
**extra)
This is the way of namespace_packages usage I against of. So, the
questions is
am I right standing that package bbb, subpackage of aaa must list in
namespace_packages
only namespaces it participate in eq 'aaa', and must not list any
namespaces it is provides,
in this case 'aaa.bbb'? So correct value namespace_packages=['aaa'] in
the case above.
Best regards,
Roman Kurakin
