This is very minor, but I recently ran across a case where I wanted to profile some code invoked that is invoked by a setuptools console_script. The generated script is in the form:
sys.exit( load_entry_point('supervisor==3.0a2', 'console_scripts', 'supervisord')() ) Due to the explicit sys.exit() call, I could not (or at least could not figure out how to) place the profiling hair in the invoked code. I wound up having to change the script to look like this: cmd = "load_entry_point ('supervisor==3.0a2','console_scripts','supervisord')()" if os.environ.has_key('SUPERVISOR_PROFILE'): import profile import pstats profile.runctx(cmd, globals(), locals(), '/tmp/superprofile') stats = pstats.Stats('/tmp/superprofile') stats.strip_dirs() stats.sort_stats('cumulative', 'calls', 'time') stats.print_stats(.3) else: sys.exit(eval(cmd)) I'm wondering if the default generated console_script should refrain from explicitly calling sys.exit. What a wonderful thing setuptools is, seriously. I'm really enjoying using it. - C _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
