  • Built-in Package Support in Python 1.5

    ...package (the package of which the current module is a submodule), the import statement looks for a top-level module with the given name. When packages are structured into subpackage (as with the Sound package in the example), there's no shortcut to refer to submodules of sibling packages - the full name of the subpackage must be used. For example, if the module Sound.Filters.vocoder needs to use the echo module in the Sound.Effects package, it can use from Sound.Effects import echo. ...

  • Catalog Requirements

    ...packages, browse through a hierarchy like Parnassus, or do keyword searches. 1.2) Packages are also indexed by author and date, so you can see all of Moshe's packages, or the 10 most recently changed packages. 1.3) For each author, their name, e-mail and home page URL are stored. 1.4) Information about a package is only extracted from the metadata included in the package's setup.py file. This ensures that the info is up-to-date, saves users the effort of entering data, and en...

  • Python Distutils-SIG: Introduction

    ...package in Python. The goal of distutils is to make building, packaging, distributing, and installing Python modules, extensions, and applications painless and standardized. There are also third-party tools built on the top of distutils, that are using the Distutils mailing list as their home. Namely: setuptools zc.buildout If you are packaging a Python package, this SIG is probably a good starting point to ask questions. ...

  • Python for Mac OS X

    ...packages available through PyPI, the Python Package Index. We recommend you use the pip tool to simplify installing and managing additional packages. pip is included with Python 3.4 releases; for earlier releases, follow the pip install instructions. Among the packages available through PyPI are some that are specifically for OS X environments. Among these are: pyobjc which provides a bridge between Python and Objective-C, allowing you to write full-featured native Cocoa applications in pure...

Even "small" packages should have version numbers. Clarify the LICENSE that you release your package under.

  • Python Data Plotting Solutions SIG Issues

    ...packages (NumPy, PIL, etc.). Quality of the software. Quality of the output. One possible goal for the API project is to develop a package- independent API for plots, which would produce reasonably similar results regardless of the plotting package used as a backend (PLPlot, Gist/Yorick, Gnuplot, etc.), in the same spirit as the interface defined by the DB-SIG. Package-specific extensions could naturally be provided as well. The goals for the new fra...

  • Community Stories

    ...packages get confused a lot. That's not their fault; that's because the volunteers who maintain the packaging tools don't have enough time to get everything organized so that it's clear and easy to use. In the last few years, the PSF has gotten grants and used that money to massively improve packaging. We overhauled PyPI and we're making pip more consistent, with genuine attention to user experience. With more funding, we can finally make managing packages pleasant as programming in Python. Sum...
