We only really need "Twisted >= 13.0.0", but we must add "[tls]" because
otherwise pip won't install it when Foolscap asks for it later, and we
need ">= 15.1.0" because that's the first version that provided "[tls]".
Fixes ticket:2760.
Also add a comment to docs/index.rst, pointing folks who are browsing
the source tree (locally, with an editor) at the formatted version on
readthedocs.org .
Also it avoids the failure mode where a user forgets to activate the
virtualenv, types the recommended "pip install" command, and installs
stuff directly to their system instead of safely confined inside the
virtualenv.
This is only useful when running "setup.py install" directly, and is not
consulted when following our recommended "pip install .".
Platform-specific directories of wheels (that we, Tahoe, host ourselves)
are available for some platforms: these are described in
docs/INSTALL.rst and must be provided as a pip argument, not a
setup.cfg/easy_install configuration:
pip install --find-links=https://tahoe-lafs.org/deps/
This also removes our involvement with eggs (which, I believe, are
usually downloaded insecurely by easy_install).
* use correct fixed-width-font markup
* fix hyperlinks to neighboring (github-side) .rst files
* refer to python-2.7.11 consistently (thanks to PRab for the catch)
Thanks to dstufft for the suggestion. I know this can make it slightly
easier to run tahoe in some funny environments (where an appropriate
"python" is on your path but the generated "tahoe" executable is not).
Our install_requires= want foolscap>=0.10.1, and this check only fired
if we were given <0.6.4, so the check should be obsolete.
Also, the check was breaking my attempt to test Tahoe against a
development release of Foolscap, as the NormalizedVersion call threw an
IrrationalVersionError at my Versioneer-based "0.10.1+14.g37d8279"
version string.
This was used to exercise our old virtualenv-like scheme. Now that we
use virtualenv, they're unnecessary. Plus, removing it lets us stop
polluting end-user installs with the extra package (that might
conceivably conflict with some other project that names itself
"buildtest").
This allows a python3-based "tox" (as shipped with modern debian and
ubuntu systems) to run setup.py egg_info, update_version, and sdist
commands. It moves the main "tahoe requires py2" check out of setup.py
and into allmydata.scripts.runner.run, where it gets applied at runtime
rather than build time.
It also changes the execfile(_auto_deps.py) and Versioneer-like "ask git
what our version string should be" code to work under both py2 and py3.
fixes ticket:2747
This replaces the following targets with "echo this is obsolete":
* fetch-and-unpack-deps (used by the old 'tarballs' builder, for SUMO tarballs)
* test-desert-island (used by the old 'clean' builder)
* test-pip-install (used by 'new-pip' builder before we switched)
It also removes the test-pip-install.py helper script.
This removes the "setup.py trial" and "setup.py test" aliases from
setup.cfg, and the custom Trial class from setup.py .
Note that once you have tahoe installed into a virtualenv, "trial
allmydata" is how tests are actually run (that's what tox does).
Having a command for it in setup.py offered two things: a common
setup.py-based target to start tests (like "make check" in a
GNU/automake -style project), and a convenient way to get the
PATH/PYTHONPATH right. "tox" is now the standard way to invoke tests in
python projects, and tox sets up $PATH for us.
