Tools needed for development and testing of Armstrong
Project description
Tools and such for handling development of Armstrong applications
This package contains some of the various helpers needed to do development work on the Armstrong packages. If you’re not actively developing, or working with development versions of Armstrong, you probably don’t need this package.
Usage
Create a fabfile (either fabfile/__init__.py or simply fabfile.py) in your project and add the following:
from armstrong.dev.tasks import *
settings = {
"DEBUG": True,
# And so on with the keys being the name of the setting and the values
# the appropriate value.
}
main_app = "name.of.your.app"
tested_apps ("another_app", main_app, )
Now your fabfile will expose the various commands for setting up and running your reusable app inside a virtualenv for testing, interacting with via the shell, and even running a simple server.
Type fab -l to see a list of all of the commands.
Installation
name="armstrong.dev" pip install -e git://github.com/armstrong/$name#egg=$name
Note: This currently relies on a development version of Fabric. This requirement is set to be dropped once Fabric 1.1 is released. To ensure this runs as expected, install the tswicegood/fabric fork of Fabric:
pip install -e git://github.com/tswicegood/fabric.git#egg=fabric
Contributing
