utility lib to generate python package version infos from mercurial tags
Project description
This module is a simple drop-in to support setup.py in mercurial based projects.
Its supposed to generate version numbers from mercurials metadata.
it uses 4 stategies to archive its taks:
try to directly ask hg for the metadata
try to infer it from the .hg_archival.txt file
try to use the cachefile if it exists
try to read the version from the ‘PKG-INFO’ file sdists contain
the most simple usage is:
from setuptools import setup
from hgdistver import get_version
setup(
...,
version=get_version(),
...,
)
get_version takes the optional argument cachefile, which causes it to store the version info in a python script instead of abusing PKG-INFO from a sdist
