I need to create an installer and an executable file for my python
program for gnu/linux.
The install script has to put the package into site-packages folder
where all other libraries reside. Then put the executable file
into /usr/bin as other files.
Write a setup.py script using the distutils package:
http://docs.python.org/distutils/index.html
I believe putting files into proper places is pritty easy (may be some
one will instantly reply to the issue of putting the executable file and
libraries in place ). But to do the database based activities, I need
python-psycopg2 module for postgresql in the first place. So is it
possible for python to self download and install all the necessary
modules on to the client machine?
You said you want to create a .deb -- list the required dependencies there.
Even regarding the executable, I am confused on using bash as the script
for writing the executable which can then do some thing like python -c
and call the modules, or write this executable code in a main.py and put
that file into the executable path i.e /usr/bin.
I've seen both a bash script with a single line: python path/to/main.py,
and a Python script that just imports some modules and then calls the main
function. Perhaps bash is more useful if your program (or any library)
requires some environment variables to be set.
