All,
I have a project pthon(3.7) I have followed the python setup instructions. I
get a dist folder with the correct files. Now, I would like to install locally
from my local machine (note I am not using virtual enviroment as our firewall
does not allow installation of packages when using VE). In my site packages
directory I get the foo.dist-info but not foo folder.
Using setuptools and following the packaging python project I had to # out over
70% of the example setup as they were all throwing warnings etc. and
prohibiting the final build.
Is there an alternative source to guide one through project packaging? Its now
been two-days of struggle with no success.
I would like to migrate some of my projects from R to Python. But, honestly,
packaging a python project seems far more difficult than building an R package.
I'm not trolling Python vs. R but my God, the level of frustration with python
packaging is about to make me walk away.
Either I am a complete moron or packaging python is a poorly documented
nightmare. If anyone can point me to source for pyhton packaging that is
better than the Packaging Python Projects website I would greatly appreciate
the direction.
