The wiki Sailfish/Python Development :
https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Sailfish/Python_Development
is updated, listing 14 Python applications released for Sailfish, available
at OpenRepos.net. It would be nice to also have them on Jolla Harbour.
I also would like to be maintainer of some of these Python packages
(modules) :
https://build.merproject.org/project/packages?project=home%3Arcolistete
and include (mainly SymPy and IPython) in default Jolla repositories
(nemo:devel:mw ?) :
https://build.merproject.org/project/show?project=nemo%3Adevel%3Amw
What is the procedure ? Some months ago I was told by IRC : "basically you
ask w00t to create a repo for you in nemomobile github and then setup a
webhook which builds it in mer OBS". Is it the same now ?
Yes, that's still the same procedure. For packages where nemo is not
upstream (e.g. SymPy and IPython), the Github organization to use is
https://github.com/nemomobile-packages/
Thanks, Thomas Perl.
So I want to be maintainer for python-sympy and python3-sympy. I've
contacted w00t about it.
"python3-sympy" package (30 MB after installation) is used by Integral,
Derivative (released today) and Limit, and can also be used by other future
applications. IPython 2.0 package is obviously a must for any developer
using Python on device.
For SymPy, do you know if the API is stable or does it change (in
incompatible ways) between releases? If you want to depend on it from
your app in Harbour, it has to have a stable API, and we have to have
a maintainer for the package (to get any security fixes and updates
packaged). For small, pure-python libraries, just packaging it with
the app is an option, but for big packages like SymPy (that probably
has some C extension modules), the repository is probably the best
way.
SymPy is very stable for API use. For example, my softwares Limit,
Derivative and Integral (for Maemo 4, Maemo 5 and Sailfish OS) are
compatible with SymPy from 2011 to 2014.
IPython (which you probably don't depend on in your app?) is less of a
problem API stability-wise - it can just be available in the
repositories to be installed from the command line.
If possible I would like to be maintainer of IPython, NumPy and
MatPlotLib on Mer/NemoMobile/Sailfish.
But let me try SymPy at first.
Best regards,
Roberto
