Hello,
What's the preferred approach to having different eggs (for different
platforms) in one folder?
I noticed that fortunately easy_install recognizes the platform, so I
can get away by having good filenames, such as
mytest-2.1.2c1-py2.7-win32
mytest-2.1.2c1-py2.7-win-amd64
The problem is that the egg-generation does not include the platform
name (so it is not compatible with the easy_install behavior, which is
weird). When I look in bdist_egg.py, I can see this:
# Compute filename of the output egg
basename = Distribution(
None, None, ei_cmd.egg_name, ei_cmd.egg_version,
get_python_version(),
self.distribution.has_ext_modules() and self.plat_name
).egg_name()
So the platform argument now is
self.distribution.has_ext_modules() and self.plat_name
Shouldn't it just be
self.plat_name
?
Would there be a workaround? I can think of giving the full name to
setup, without specifying a version:
setup(name='mytest-2.1.2c1-py2.7-win32', version = '', ...)
Thanks very much!
Martin
P.S. On an unrelated note, wouldn't it be more pythonic, and easier to
read, to include keyword arguments in the basename = Distribution(...) line?
