Pure Python distribution (by module)<a class="headerlink" href="#pure-python-distribution-by-module" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> <p>If you’re just distributing a couple of modules, especially if they don’t live in a particular package, you can specify them individually using the <em class="xref std std-option">py_modules</em> option in the setup script.</p> <p>In the simplest case, you’ll have two files to worry about: a setup script and the single module you’re distributing, <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo.py</span></tt> in this example:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre><root>/ setup.py foo.py</pre> </div> <p>(In all diagrams in this section, <em><root></em> will refer to the distribution root directory.) A minimal setup script to describe this situation would be:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foo'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">py_modules</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'foo'</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>Note that the name of the distribution is specified independently with the <em class="xref std std-option">name</em> option, and there’s no rule that says it has to be the same as the name of the sole module in the distribution (although that’s probably a good convention to follow). However, the distribution name is used to generate filenames, so you should stick to letters, digits, underscores, and hyphens.</p> <p>Since <em class="xref std std-option">py_modules</em> is a list, you can of course specify multiple modules, eg. if you’re distributing modules <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo</span></tt> and <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">bar</span></tt>, your setup might look like this:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre><root>/ setup.py foo.py bar.py</pre> </div> <p>and the setup script might be</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">py_modules</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'foo'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">'bar'</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>You can put module source files into another directory, but if you have enough modules to do that, it’s probably easier to specify modules by package rather than listing them individually.</p> </div> <div class="section" id="pure-python-distribution-by-package"> <span id="pure-pkg"></span><h2>7.2. Pure Python distribution (by package)<a class="headerlink" href="#pure-python-distribution-by-package" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> <p>If you have more than a couple of modules to distribute, especially if they are in multiple packages, it’s probably easier to specify whole packages rather than individual modules. This works even if your modules are not in a package; you can just tell the Distutils to process modules from the root package, and that works the same as any other package (except that you don’t have to have an <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">__init__.py</span></tt> file).</p> <p>The setup script from the last example could also be written as</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">packages</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">''</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>(The empty string stands for the root package.)</p> <p>If those two files are moved into a subdirectory, but remain in the root package, e.g.:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre><root>/ setup.py src/ foo.py bar.py</pre> </div> <p>then you would still specify the root package, but you have to tell the Distutils where source files in the root package live:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">package_dir</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">{</span><span class="s">''</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s">'src'</span><span class="p">},</span> <span class="n">packages</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">''</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>More typically, though, you will want to distribute multiple modules in the same package (or in sub-packages). For example, if the <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo</span></tt> and <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">bar</span></tt> modules belong in package <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">foobar</span></tt>, one way to layout your source tree is</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre><root>/ setup.py foobar/ __init__.py foo.py bar.py</pre> </div> <p>This is in fact the default layout expected by the Distutils, and the one that requires the least work to describe in your setup script:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">packages</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>If you want to put modules in directories not named for their package, then you need to use the <em class="xref std std-option">package_dir</em> option again. For example, if the <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">src</span></tt> directory holds modules in the <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">foobar</span></tt> package:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre><root>/ setup.py src/ __init__.py foo.py bar.py</pre> </div> <p>an appropriate setup script would be</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">package_dir</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">{</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s">'src'</span><span class="p">},</span> <span class="n">packages</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>Or, you might put modules from your main package right in the distribution root:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre><root>/ setup.py __init__.py foo.py bar.py</pre> </div> <p>in which case your setup script would be</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">package_dir</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">{</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s">''</span><span class="p">},</span> <span class="n">packages</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>(The empty string also stands for the current directory.)</p> <p>If you have sub-packages, they must be explicitly listed in <em class="xref std std-option">packages</em>, but any entries in <em class="xref std std-option">package_dir</em> automatically extend to sub-packages. (In other words, the Distutils does <em>not</em> scan your source tree, trying to figure out which directories correspond to Python packages by looking for <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">__init__.py</span></tt> files.) Thus, if the default layout grows a sub-package:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><pre><root>/ setup.py foobar/ __init__.py foo.py bar.py subfoo/ __init__.py blah.py</pre> </div> <p>then the corresponding setup script would be</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">distutils.core</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">setup</span> <span class="n">setup</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">version</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1.0'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">packages</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'foobar'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">'foobar.subfoo'</span><span class="p">],</span> <span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>(Again, the empty string in <em class="xref std std-option">package_dir</em> stands for the current directory.)</p> </div> <div class="section" id="single-extension-module"> <span id="single-ext"></span><h2>7.3.
