DO NOT USE. IT IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Chimpsetup aims at adding extra commands to setup.py:

• install dependencies (useful when using docker to create a layer with the dependencies already installed)
• add extra information accessible through code about the application version and git versions (useful when creating an API that exposes these information)

Setup

Install the package chimpsetup:

pip install chimpsetup

Then edit the file setup.py and add the line:

import chimpsetup

Usage

You can then use the following commands:

• ./setup.py install_dependencies [--upgrade]: Install dependencies
• ./setup.py test_dependencies [--upgrade]: Install test dependencies
• ./setup.py versions --file=<python file> [--addtoinstall] [--addtodevelop]: Create a file that contains the application version and various info about the git commit used when the application is built
