g-pypi

http://tools.assembla.com/g-pypi

g-pypi creates Python package ebuilds for Gentoo Linux by querying The Cheese Shop.

Although it's in the early stages of development, testing has generated over 1,200 ebuilds automatically.

Note: g-pypi will only be as good at creating ebuilds as The Python Package Index information is. People can leave out a lot of information when submitting info to PyPI, making ebuild creation impossible.

Basic Usage

Output ebuild to stdout:

g-pypi -p package_name

Write ebuild to your overlay:

g-pypi package_name

Create live svn ebuild (if subversion URI is listed in PyPI):

g-pypi -s package_name

By default your first overlay listed in /etc/make.conf PORTDIR_OVERLAY is used. If you want to use a different one, edit ~/.g-pypirc

By default your first KEYWORD listed in /etc/make.conf KEYWORDS is used. If you want to use a different one, edit ~/.g-pypirc

You can over-ride some variables if g-pypi can't figure out the PN, PV etc.

-n or --PN=package-name

-v or --PV=version

--MY_P=my_p

--MY_PN=my_pn

--MY_PV=my_pv

If you don't specify a portage category with '-c' the ebuild will be placed in dev-python

Use '-V' for verbose output for debugging.

INSTALL

g-pypi is available in my overlay directory:

If you haven't emerged and configured app-portage/layman:

emerge layman
echo "source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf" >> /etc/make.conf
layman --add pythonhead
emerge g-pypi

Subversion

subversion repository

Hint: You can use to create a live svn ebuild for g-pypi ;)

g-pypi -s g-pypi
