I propose that buildout-versions get incorporated into
buildout in the following way:
I've prepared a pull request:
https://github.com/buildout/buildout/pull/46
1. The ``allow-picked-versions`` option gets a new allowed value of
``show``. if there are unpicked versions and this option is set to
``show``, then picked/unpinned versions are reported in a way
suitable for copying into a versions section, presumably with the
same format used by buildout-versions today.
Having a nice true/false boolean become a true/false/'show' hybrid: not
too nice.
I've added a show-picked-versions option (default: false). Set it to
true and you get the picked versions at the end like buildout-versions
would give you.
2. New buildout option: ``update-versions-file``. This takes a path
(relative to buildout directory) of a file to update with any
unpinned versions (in a manner roughly the same as
buildout-versions does today).
Done.
3. New buildout option: ``python-version`` that restricts the Python
version, with the same semantics as buildout-version provides now.
Hm. I copy/pasted the buildout-versions code and worked from there.
Buildout-versions simply looks at a 'python' entry in the [versions]
part, so that's different from a python-version option.
That's not too bad as it saves us another buildout option. But... do we
want to change this?
1, 2, and 3 will be done when Chris (or someone else) makes
time to work on a pull request. Perhaps this will be in buildout 2.1.
Should my pull request land in 2.0 instead of in 2.1?
Alternative is that Chris accepts the buildout-versions pull request I
prepared, but he's right (I think) in preferring it to land in buildout
itself.
(I myself cannot really use buildout 2 without the buildout-versions
functionality either in buildout itself or in a new buildout-versions).
