Hello, First time trying to use Python's package tools and I'm attempting to use pip to install from a local project:
python3 -m pip install --user --upgrade --no-deps ./ I have a simple directory structure very similar to that recommended in https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/ project/ data/ mypackage/ __init__.py data/ *.csv module1.py module2.py tmpl/ *.jinja setup.py The project/data/ directory contains several GB of stuff I use during development. It is not supposed to be part of the package and it is not mentioned in setup.py. The problem is when I run the install command above it takes many minutes to finish. When I move the project/data/ sub-directory out of the project/ directory, it takes a few seconds. I thought perhaps that "packages=setuptools.find_packages()" in my setup.py file might be the culprit but replacing in with "packages=['mypackage']" made no difference. I'm not sure why pip seems to be roaming through project/data/ (if that's what's happening) but is there some way to get it not to? My apologies if this is covered in the docs somewhere; I'm still going though them but didn't see anything with an initial scan. If it helps, here is my setup.py file: setuptools.setup ( name="mypackage", version="...", author="Me", author_email="...", description="...", long_description="...", long_description_content_type="text/markdown", url="...", packages=['mypackage'], package_data={'mypackage': ['data/*.csv', 'tmpl/*.jinja',]}, zip_safe = False, classifiers=[...], python_requires='>=3.6', install_requires = ['jinja2',], ) Thanks for any enlightenment. -- Distutils-SIG mailing list -- distutils-sig@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to distutils-sig-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/distutils-sig.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/distutils-sig@python.org/message/4JVTE7ZEGR4G3L6ISCT6USFQCFJZEAVA/
