PyPI name: pylib
Pythons: 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1.x, Jython-2.5.1, PyPy-1.3
Operating systems: Linux, Windows, OSX, Unix
Requirements: setuptools or Distribute
Installers: easy_install and pip
hg repository: https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pylib
Both Distribute and setuptools provide the easy_install installation tool with which you can type into a command line window:
easy_install -U pylib
to install the latest release of the py lib. The -U switch will trigger an upgrade if you already have an older version installed. Note that setuptools works ok with Python2 interpreters while Distribute additionally works with Python3 and also avoid some issues on Windows.
To follow development or start experiments, checkout the complete code and documentation source with mercurial:
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pylib
Development takes place on the ‘trunk’ branch.
You can also go to the python package index and download and unpack a TAR file:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pylib/
With a working Distribute or setuptools installation you can type:
python setup.py develop
in order to work inline with the tools and the lib of your checkout.
