I am hoping if someone can set me straight.
I have created a setup script for a module, however, when running the
install on my own machine, I would like to place the module in a
specific site-packages directory/package.
So if I start with a module in
.\dev\mygreatmodule.py
I want to end up with;
.\lib\site-packages\mytools\mygreatmodule.py.
I have the setup script working, however, when I run the install, it
places the module in the root of site-packages.
The following is the deatils from the script
setup (
name = "mymodule",
version = "0.1",
description = "My modules special description",
author = "me",
author_email = "me at mydomain.com",
py_modules = ["exceptionhandler"]
)
This is for development purposes. I would like to have a development
copy of some "tools", but when ready and tested "publish" them to the
site-packages where they can be included in "production" code.
Any guidance/suggestions would be appreciated.
