Hey guys, Quick follow up from the summit on things that should happen in projects from the setup module of openstack common as I understand it. (to make sure we're all on the same page)
There are currently 5 essential things in openstack.common.setup: parse_requirements parse_dependency_links write_requirements write_git_changelog generate_authors that are being used to varying levels in the various projects. What should happen at this point is this: parse_requirements parse_dependency_links Should be in all of the client libraries and should be removed from all the not-client libraries. These are essential for pip installation of client libs (which is important) as they allow pip to follow the depends. The make things hard for non-client libs, as setuptools doesn't understand git urls, which we use in non-client lib pip-requires files. write_requirements Should die everywhere. It was an attempt to record in our tarballs the state of what was actually tested ... but did not actually provide benefit to anyone - and the distros hate it. write_git_changelog generate_authors Should be added/used everywhere. When generate_authors is added, unit tests testing authors content should be removed. Is this how everyone else understood the outcome of conversations at the summit too? Thanks!
