Greg Ward 7d9c705b23 Typo fix. 2000-06-28 01:25:27 +00:00
Greg Ward 55fced3df9 More stylistic tweaks to the generic '--help-xxx' code. 2000-06-24 01:22:41 +00:00
Greg Ward 2ff7887270 Stylistic/formatting changes to Rene Liebscher's '--help-xxx' patch. 2000-06-24 00:23:20 +00:00
Greg Ward 9d17a7ad6d Patch from Rene Liebscher: this adds "--help-foo" options to list the
values that "--foo" can take for various commands: eg. what formats for
"sdist" and "bdist", what compilers for "build_ext" and "build_clib".

I have *not* reviewed this patch; I'm checking it in as-is because it also
fixes a paper-bag-over-head bug in bdist.py, and because I won't have
time to review it properly for several days: so someone else can
test it for me, instead!

Greg Ward 1169687692 Always look for the system config file in the Distutils module directory,
and call it "distutils.cfg" instead of "pydistutils.cfg" (personal
config files are still ".pydistutils.cfg" or "pydistutils.cfg", though).

Greg Ward acf3f6a700 Patch from Rene Liebscher:
Look for personal config file in /home/greg on Windows, too: users will have
to set /home/greg to use this, so it's not something that many people will
use.  But if python-dev comes up with the "right way" to divine a
home directory on Windows, we can use that to set /home/greg and poof! --
personal Distutils config files on Windows.

Greg Ward 43955c9a02 Fix 'reinitialize_command()' so it resets the 'have_run' flag for the
command being reinitialized to false.
2000-06-06 02:52:36 +00:00
Greg Ward 2bd3f4250d Only print debugging output if DEBUG true (and deleted some of the more
extraneous debug prints).
2000-06-02 01:59:33 +00:00
Greg Ward 8ff5a3fd92 Reformatted and updated many docstrings. 2000-06-02 00:44:53 +00:00
Greg Ward 282c7a0230 Oops, 'reinitialize_command()' forgot to return the command object if didn't
need to be reinitialized -- fixed.
2000-06-01 01:09:47 +00:00
Greg Ward c32d9a6952 Factored '_set_command_options()' out of 'get_command_obj()'.
Added 'reinitialize_command()' -- lets us "push" option values in
  a controlled, safe way; this is a small change to the code, but
  a big change to the Distutils philosophy of passing option values
  around.  The preferred mode is still definitely to "pull" options
  from another command (eg. "install" fetches the base build directory
  from "build"), but it is now feasible to "push" options onto another
  command, when you know what's best for it.  One possible application
  will be a "config" command, which pokes around the system and pushes
  values (eg. include and library directories) onto the "build" command.
Added 'dump_option_dicts()' method (for debugging output).
2000-05-28 23:53:06 +00:00
Greg Ward 4fb29e55f8 Some far-reaching naming changes:
* Command method 'find_peer()' -> 'get_finalized_command()'
  * Command method 'run_peer()' -> 'run_command()'
Also deleted the 'get_command_option()' method from Command, and
  fixed the one place where it was used (in "bdist_dumb").
2000-05-27 17:27:23 +00:00
Greg Ward 51def7d667 Support for the "install_headers" command: distribution option 'headers'
and method 'has_headers()'.
2000-05-27 01:36:14 +00:00
Greg Ward 0e48cfd2c5 Factored out code for extracting-or-creating one of the option
dictionaries in 'self.command_options' to 'get_option_dict()'.
Simplified code in 'parse_config_files()' and 'parse_command_line()'
  accordingly.
Fixed code in constructor that processes the 'options' dictionary
  from the setup script so it actually works: uses the new
  'self.command_options' dictionary rather than creating command
  objects and calling 'set_option()' on them.
2000-05-26 01:00:15 +00:00
Greg Ward 40313cfe6e Fix 'get_command_obj()' so it checks if a command object has an attribute
before setting it -- this will catch bad options (eg. typos) in config files.
2000-05-23 04:11:14 +00:00
Greg Ward 474607777d Fixed so options from config files and command lines actually work:
* 'get_command_obj()' now sets command attributes based on
    the 'command_options' dictionary
  * some typos fixed
  * kludged 'parse_config_files()' to re-initialize the ConfigParser
    instance after each file, so we know for sure which config
    file each option comes form
  * added lots of handy debugging output
2000-05-23 03:47:35 +00:00
Greg Ward d5d8a9982b Marching towards full support of config files: thoroughly overhauled the
command-line parsing code, splitting it up into several methods (new
methods: '_parse_command_opts()', '_show_help()') and making it put options
into the 'command_options' dictionary rather than instantiating command
objects and putting them there.

Lots of other little changes:
  * merged 'find_command_class()' and 'create_command_obj()' and
    called the result 'get_command_class()'
  * renamed 'find_command_obj()' to 'get_command_obj()', and added
    command object creation and maintenance of the command object cache to
    its responsibilities (taken over from 'create_command_obj()')
  * parse config files one-at-a-time, so we can keep track of the
    filename for later error reporting
  * tweaked some help messages
  * fixed up many obsolete comments and docstrings
2000-05-23 01:42:17 +00:00
Greg Ward 44a61bbb66 Added 'has_scripts()', 'has_data_files()' methods. 2000-05-20 15:06:48 +00:00
Greg Ward 36c36fec7c Added missing import. 2000-05-20 14:07:59 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith 6a901dd1bd List data files are listed in the Distribution attribute 'data_files',
rather than 'data'.
2000-05-13 03:09:50 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith b2e3bb3d6a Patch from Bastien Kleineidam:
adds the 'install_data' and 'install_scripts' commands; these two
are trivial thanks to the 'install_misc' base class in cmd.py.
(Minor tweaks and commentary by me; the code is untested so far.)
2000-05-12 00:52:23 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith 1426354cf6 Preliminary support for config files:
- added 'find_config_files()' and 'parse_config_files()' methods
  - added 'command_options' attribute
Comment/docstring updates.
2000-05-12 00:41:33 +00:00
Greg Ward c4537ac9b6 Got rid of several little-used and not-very-useful methods: 'get_option()',
'get_options()', 'get_command_option()', 'get_command_options()'.
2000-05-07 15:30:31 +00:00
Greg Ward e5a584e865 Harry Henry Gebel: add 'long_description' to DistributionMetadata. 2000-04-26 02:26:55 +00:00
Greg Ward 4982f98bc9 Fix how we generate the meta-data query methods to include 'get_fullname()'
and the other "composite meta-data" methods.
2000-04-22 02:52:44 +00:00
Greg Ward 58ec6ede20 Fixed the '--license' option so it's officially an alias for '--licence',
and now actually works.
2000-04-21 04:22:49 +00:00
Greg Ward 82715e1f11 Patch, originally from Bastian Kleineidam and savagely mutilated by me,
to add the "display metadata" options: --name, --version, --author,
and so forth.  Main changes:
  * added 'display_options' class attribute to list all the "display only"
    options (--help-commands plus the metadata options)
  * added DistributionMetadata class as a place to put the actual
    metadata information from the setup script (not to be confused with
    the metadata display options); the logic dealing with metadata
    (eg. return self.name or "UNKNOWN") is now  in this class
  * changed 'parse_command_line()' to use the new OO interface provided
    by fancy_getopt, mainly so we can get at the original order of
    options on the command line, so we can print multiple lines of
    distribution meta-data in the order specified by the user
  * added 'handle_display_options()' to handle display-only options
Also fixed some crufty old comments/docstrings.
2000-04-21 02:28:14 +00:00
Greg Ward 02a1a2b077 Cleaned up/simplified error-handling:
- DistutilsOptionError is now documented as it's actually used, ie.
    to indicate bogus option values (usually user options, eg. from
    the command-line)
  - added DistutilsSetupError to indicate errors that definitely arise
    in the setup script
  - got rid of DistutilsValueError, and changed all usage of it to
    either DistutilsSetupError or ValueError as appropriate
  - simplified a bunch of option get/set methods in Command and
    Distribution classes -- just pass on AttributeError most of
    the time, rather than turning it into something else
2000-04-15 22:15:07 +00:00
Greg Ward 68a0757e23 Removed global '--force' option -- just too vague a concept to be applicable
to all commands in the same way.  Several Command methods now either expect
'self.force' to be defined, or check if it is defined and assume it's
false if not.
2000-04-10 00:18:16 +00:00
Greg Ward 7d508fe568 Add missing import of 'usage' string. 2000-04-06 02:07:41 +00:00
Greg Ward fe6462c1f3 Reorganization: moved the Distribution class from core.py to dist.py, and
the Command class from core.py to cmd.py.  No other code needs changing
though; distutils.core still provides the Command and Distribution classes,
although indirectly now.
