Python Eggs - Creating and Distributing Them

  • Where does distutils fit in?
  • What do I need to add to setup.py to package my software as an egg?
  • How does it work re path configuration files?
  • What are the issues with zipped eggs; how can my code access my data?
  • How do I produce cross-platform eggs?
  • How do I produce platform-specific eggs?
  • How do I get my eggs registered on the cheeseshop?
  • How do I upload my eggs, source and binaries?
  • How can I volunteer as a packager for non-egg authors?
  • Some eggs are broken in the cheeseshop - how can I help?

(eggs can get complicated with entry points, dynamic discovery of services etc. Keep this talk simple and focused on just getting your vanilla egg packaged and uploaded. Defer the advanced egg issues to a separate advanced talk)
