Wheeljack helps manage dependent python projects. All related projects will
live in $WHEELJACK_REPO
and will interact with one another in the active
virtual environment.
E.g. you may have a directory structure:
$WHEELJACK_REPO/
foo/
bar/
Where foo
and bar
are both python packages. In this environment you should
be able to freely edit foo
or bar
and access one another by doing import foo
or import bar
. If you also do:
pip install bar
Your environment should favor the git
working copy of bar
over the pip install
ed package. This will allow you to work on packages and their
dependencies fairly seemlessly.
Wheeljack expects you to use a virtualenv
.
This is a yaml
file which lists repositories in Github or Github Enterprise.
There are two main parts of the config. global
which applies to all repos
and repos
which define individual repositories.
See example.conf
.
install-repo
will install a repo from a repos.conf file to $WHEELJACK_CODE
.
We'll instruct the user to use the hub
command to fork this repo.
update-libs
will update the current virtualenv:- It will
git fetch origin/master
on any repos in$WHEELJACK_CODE
- It will
pip install -r $WHEELJACK_CODE/**/requirements.txt
for every installed requirement.
- It will
- Work with multiple python
