setup.py examples?

After studying this page:

http://docs.python.org/distutils/builtdist.html

I am hoping to find some setup.py files to study so as to make my own (with the goal of making a fedora rpm file).

Could the s.o. community point me towards some good examples?

Solution

  • Complete walkthrough of writing setup.py scripts here. (with some examples)

    If you'd like a real-world example, I could point you towards the setup.py scripts of a couple major projects. Django's is here, pyglet's is here. You can just browse the source of other projects for a file named setup.py for more examples.

    These aren't simple examples; the tutorial link I gave has those. These are more complex, but also more practical.
