#pypa logs for Thursday the 10th of December, 2015
[00:47:07] <FichteFoll> quick question, is using `python setup.py register` (with setuptools) safe now for recent versions?
[09:04:30] <zahlman> I tried to `pip install pywin32`, and received the error `Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement pywin32`. Is that simply because my version of python isn't supported?
[09:07:47] <zahlman> I found http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14913607/how-to-install-win32com-module-in-a-virtualenv
[09:08:30] <zahlman> ... wait, you can have a project page on pypi without actually hosting the project there?
[09:09:14] <mgedmin> older versions of setuptools would crawl all pages reachable from the pypi index looking for links that look like maybe they point to downloadable archives
[09:14:00] <zahlman> looks like the pypi page doesn't even have correct classifiers; the sf page is showing builds for 3.4 and 3.5
[09:16:54] <zahlman> I mean, in that case I'd say 'get off sourceforge; people still use that?', but :)
[09:17:02] <mgedmin> and there's little point in uploading sdists since end users tend not to have C compilers on windows
[09:17:20] <mgedmin> "would you pleas consider migrating to github" might be a more politic phrasing
[09:18:17] <zahlman> iirc he's been credited in the Python installer as 'without whose help Python for Windows would still be Python for DOS'
[09:18:38] <zahlman> it really would be nice for python's windows support in general to be more transparent.
[09:20:08] <zahlman> there does appear to be a (zipped) source distribution, though, setup.py and all.
[09:21:59] <zahlman> looks like I can give the path to the .zip directly to pip? am I reading the help correctly?
[09:25:05] <zahlman> sigh, the setup.py is written for 2.x. Is there some way to tell pip to 2to3-ize it as part of the process?
[09:27:06] <zahlman> ... what the hell. This setup.py has an explicit `is_py3k` check at the top, but uses incompatible 2.x print statements
[09:35:05] <mgedmin> hmm, glyph is a pypi maintainer for both projects; he could upload the wheels into pywin32
[09:37:05] <zahlman> ...ahaha. pip claims it installed successfully (into my virtualenv, even, which apparently isn't supposed to be possible http://sourceforge.net/p/pywin32/bugs/669/)
[09:42:00] <zahlman> I figured. well, it still means I can't import win32comext.mapi.mapisend and expect it to work as is ;)
[09:42:59] <zahlman> I guess it would have worked to use `globals()` instead, since then the value would be found in global lookup on the old versions, and ignored on 3.x+ (and also not be invalid syntax)
[09:43:17] <zahlman> but you would have had to have been pretty psychic to anticipate that in 2.3-ish days :)
[09:45:24] <zahlman> (since it's in a venv anyway, I'm going to just delete those lines. although I suspect the installer modified my registry quite a bit anyway, which would make it not such a clean virtualization)
[12:03:16] <lumidee> hi, how do i write 'console_scripts': [ 'gymail-cli = gymail: argparse_entrypoint',] if my function argparse_entrypoint is in the file /gymail/gymail.py? /gymail is the top package directory, there's non above. i get this error message: ImportError: module 'gymail' has no attribute 'argparse_entrypoint'. strangely the cli command still works though this error appears. i also tried 'console_scripts': [ 'gymail-cli = gymail.gymail:
[14:01:35] <jml> If I have a project that needs --process-dependency-links to work (temporarily using a fork of a dependency while we wait for fixes to be merged), is there any way I can configure pip so that `pip install -e .[dev]` automatically uses --process-dependency-links?
[14:03:48] <mgedmin> iirc every pip option can be set three ways: on the command line, via environtment, via config file
[14:18:12] <ronny> jml: do you have a own devpi instance, at my workplace we upload local versions to a devpi instance, pin those and require all devs to use the devpi
[14:24:29] <jml> ronny: yeah, we do have that, but we don't yet require all devs to do anything like that.
[14:24:53] <jml> sounds like no matter what I do, it'll involve a change that needs to be communicated to all devs.
[14:27:21] <mgedmin> buildout is nice for situations like this: you add a '[buildout] find-links = https://our.intranet/forked-packages/' to buildout.cfg and everyone will get the right bits next time they run 'make' (or bin/buildout)
[20:38:55] <jaraco> Regarding setuptools_scm #72, I was in the process of doing a merge when I first encountered the error.
[20:39:28] <jaraco> I probably finished the merge while I worked out the setuptools_scm issue, but the merge was likely implicated.
[20:48:01] <ronny> jaraco: im hoping i can finish m bb > gh importer bz the weekend (username mapping based on a actual human checked maping is missing)
[20:52:03] <ronny> jaraco: i udnerstood the bug, there is a hg template i should be giving with a newline and expect more than one line, i can make test
[21:07:32] <ronny> jaraco: btw, i need admin perms on the pypa setuptools_scm repo, i'd like to enable appevoyer
