Re: [Distutils] defining requirements on pypi

Thanks for testing it and extra info! It sounds like I 'fixed' the problem in the not-recommended way of including requirements.txt in the MANIFEST.in. I've been using a pretty hefty setup.py: https://github.com/braingram/simple_setup that attempts to auto-parse and detect 'everything' (finding p

Since pip 1.4 it does yes, however the problem here is that typically bandersnatch mirrors are simply hosted by plain static web servers and don’t require any sort of runtime logic. > On Aug 28, 2014, at 6:39 PM, Joe Smith wrote: > > Naive question- does pip send over a UserAgent (or something

Re: [Distutils] Handling Case/Normalization Differences

Naive question- does pip send over a UserAgent (or something) that contains a version number the server can use to determine which behavior to default to? That would allow a deprecation cycle of N months or so that will let people upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6. We could then watch usage of 1.5 decrease

Re: [Distutils] defining requirements on pypi

PyPI doesn’t parse anything, metadata is passed alongside the file upload. This means that for sdists it would just need modified to communicate that information to PyPI. PyPI won’t show metadata for Wheels either unless you upload them with Twine. > On Aug 28, 2014, at 6:02 PM, Daniel Holth

Re: [Distutils] defining requirements on pypi

Pypi only parses requirements from wheels for display but this doesn't affect installation. On Aug 28, 2014 7:49 AM, "Brett Graham" wrote: > Hi, > > I feel like these are stupid questions but I cannot seem to find a > straight answer. > > In brief, > > 1) what is egg-info/requires.txt used for? >

FWIW, I did whip up a test case just now, I put it up at github[1]. The second commit works correctly, but not the first or the third. For Ansible and Fabric, IMO it's not necessary to put the files in /usr/share. It's just that they need somewhere to put those things and be able to get at them at

[Distutils] Handling Case/Normalization Differences

Right now the “canonical” page for a particular project on PyPI is whatever the author happened to name their package (e.g. Django). This requires PyPI to have some "smarts" so that it can redirect things like /simple/django/ to /simple/Django/ otherwise someone doing ``pip install django`` would f
