[01:50:03] <agronholm> I didn't realize that wheels can't be arbitrarily named

[01:50:24] <agronholm> their names have to match the spec or pip refuses to install them

[02:27:49] <Ivo> agronholm: I'm not a fan of deriving metadata from filenames either, but it is what it is

[02:28:19] <agronholm> why can't it just look in the metadata inside the zip? should be trivial

[02:28:51] <Ivo> because the PEP specifies that the filename is important

[02:28:57] <agronholm> meh

[02:31:06] <Ivo> agronholm: there is https://github.com/dstufft/peps/blob/master/moar-better-wheels.rst to comment / PR on if you'd like to help change things in the future :)

[02:31:26] <agronholm> the thing is, I'm trying to set up continuous integration

[02:32:42] <agronholm> I have to point pip to a specific filename

[02:32:59] <agronholm> if I use -f, pip will take a long time looking for the packages in PyPI

[02:33:13] <Ivo> --no-index?

[02:33:14] <agronholm> --no-index is a no go because then it can't download deps from pypi

[02:33:24] <Ivo> make a wheelhouse

[02:33:40] <agronholm> a devpi server or something else?

[02:34:11] <Ivo> a wheelhouse can just be a folder

[02:34:23] <Ivo> on filesystem or in a http directory

[02:34:47] <Ivo> build necessary wheels for it with pip wheel -r requirements.txt

[02:34:59] <Ivo> or pip wheel <packages>

[02:35:11] <agronholm> can it read the requirements from my setup.py?

[02:35:20] <agronholm> I don't have a requirements.txt

[02:35:40] <Ivo> then I thnk pip wheel . would work

[02:35:44] <agronholm> ok

[02:35:48] <agronholm> let's see...

[02:35:55] <Ivo> it would build a wheel of your package, and also wheels of the packages it depends on

[02:36:16] <agronholm> I don't want that

[02:36:30] <agronholm> that means there would be plenty of duplication between wheels of my packages

[02:36:57] <agronholm> if I have project A that is depended on by project B

[02:37:01] <agronholm> I build wheels for both

[02:37:15] <agronholm> B's wheel would also contain A and its dependencies

[02:37:20] <agronholm> but B is merely a plugin for A

[02:37:26] <agronholm> you see what I'm getting at?

[02:37:39] <Ivo> eh

[02:37:44] <Ivo> wheels dont contain other wheels

[02:38:08] <Ivo> point the command at the same wheel-dir

[02:41:12] <agronholm> ok, I think I know where to go from here

[02:41:18] <agronholm> thanks for the pointers

[02:41:38] <Ivo> I haven't checked the command looks for duplicates, but I assuem it does

[02:41:48] <Ivo> otherwise you can also use --no-deps for project B

[02:42:10] <agronholm> I'll just put all the wheels in the same dir?

[02:42:36] <Ivo> ja, and then when installing things just use pip install --no-index --find-links=./my/wheelhouse <package>

[02:42:46] <agronholm> yep

[02:43:27] <Ivo> basically what it's designed for, creating a local cache of package wheels

[15:31:48] <Alex_Gaynor> dstufft: is --find-links deprecated (in favor of --extra-index-url)

[15:47:50] <dstufft> Alex_Gaynor: --find-links is not deprecated (because it does something slightly different than --extra-index-url). I want to unify --extra-index-url, --find-links, and --index-url.. I just haven't sorted out how yet

[23:27:09] <kevr> pip3 is trying to use a python 2 setup.py file to install something.

[23:27:28] <kevr> does that mean the package i'm trying to install is only meant for python 2?

[23:45:56] <agronholm> kevr: what are you trying to install?

[23:46:11] <agronholm> and what do you mean by a python 2 setup file

[23:46:20] <agronholm> are there several in the project...?
