I'm trying to
build a Python distribution with distutils. Unfortunately, my directory structure looks like this:
/code
/mypackage
__init__.py
file1.py
file2.py
/subpackage
__init__.py
/build
setup.py
Here's my setup.py file:
from distutils.core import setup
setup(
name = 'MyPackage',
description = 'This is my package',
packages = ['mypackage', 'mypackage.subpackage'],
package_dir = { 'mypackage' : '../mypackage' },
version = '1',
url = 'http://www.mypackage.org/',
author = 'Me',
author_email = '
[email protected]',
)
When I run python setup.py sdist it correctly generates the manifest file, but doesn't include my source files in the distribution. Apparently, it creates a directory to contain the source files (i.e. mypackage1) then copies each of the source files to mypackage1/../mypackage which puts them outside of the distribution.
How can I correct this, without forcing my directory structure to conform to what distutils expects?
