Packaging an entire buildout environment is not really an option I think, since we have several projects using the same eggs, and we think it would be cleaner to share them (I'm thinking especially of big eggs, like scipy and numpy). On the other hand, I looked at collective.releaser and it is tempting. I will talk about this with my boss. >> The tarball should hold >> /myproject/myproject-0.3.0-py2.6-macosx-10.3-fat/<all files> >> in a compiled form (as would be the result of setup.py bdist) >> >> The info you gave me is usefull for locally developped packages that I can >> install as develop eggs. >> However some of them should be retreived from git, but I thought downloading >> them first, then put them as develop eggs. > > These packages are part of your buildout project or not ? If they > are, you can use a project like "mr.developer" to get those locally. Yes there are. I didn't know about mr.developer, looks nice, thanks ! As for git, I am using zerokspot.recipe.git to retrieve them as develop eggs. > But again, I am not sure about your release process and how these > packages are included in your environment so.. > > If you just want to create standalone binary distributions of single > python packages, I am not sure how buildout is related, and why you > are doing a recipe. Buildout is interesting to me because I can develop, test and use packages in a clean environment. I don't need to take care of any PYTHONPATH, all dependencies are installed automatically, and so on. So it is a great tool for development, and I got this from your book (which is really great by the way). As such I want to have a recipe for automatically creating packages to deploy on our servers. I see that it is indeed not buildout's philosophy build isolated eggs, but it is not the only thing I use it for :), it is a mere packaging tool for our production system I am building.
