How do I use setuptools or distutils to distribute a script as opposed to a Python package? -

-

in past, tutorials i've seen of distutils or setuptools seem geared toward distributing so-called "python packages"; i.e., collections of closely related python modules, intended imported unit else.

i have different: large command line script. script lives in python project structure looks similar this:

git_repo/     .gitignore     readme.rst     src/         myscript.py         sub_module1.py         sub_module2.py         sub_module3.py     test/         test_sub_module1.py         test_sub_module2.py         test_sub_module3.py

inside of myscript.py file, first several lines this:

#!/usr/bin/env python  import sub_module1 import sub_module2 import sub_module3  # go bunch of stuff... # etc...

the code contained in various submodules stuff couldn't imagine ever wanting re-use in project; pieces specific main application, myscript.py. in addition, material inside of each submodule.py file not closely related between 1 submodule , another. collectively, don't think particularly natural or logical group them sub-package own __init__.py file. in fact, reason have these submodule files in first place organize main script more cleanly; doing way results in top-level myscript.py file coming out to, say, 100 lines, rather piled single massive 1000 line scroll.

within git_repo/src directory, can execute script typing out @ command line, e.g.:

./myscript.py --opt1 <value_1> --opt2 <value_2> --opt3 <value_3> ...

my question: since project command line script , not importable package, how should call setuptools setup() function in case? how select input parameters setup() in order let know should treat myscript.py executable script (meaning, example, knows chmod 755 myscript.py during installation), while making clear accompanying submodule.py files, although not scripts themselves, nevertheless required dependencies should installed adjacent myscript.py within same directory? correct form of setup function in case?

you should use setuptools entry points , pip install pkg create bin/ script you. when system-wide package installation script go /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin.

i have similar problem described in how prevent numbers being changed exponential form in python matplotlib figure : i don't want (in special case) weird scientific formatting of axis. problem different have problem @ z -axis. 2-d plots can use ax.get_yaxis().get_major_formatter().set_useoffset(false) . , there no function ax.get_zaxis() what use format z -axis same way? edit: example: from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import axes3d import numpy np import sys import matplotlib import matplotlib.pyplot pyplot def func(xi, ti): res = 10e3 + np.cos(ti) * np.sin(xi) return res if __name__ == '__main__': timespacing = 20 timestart = 0 timeend = 1 time = np.linspace(timestart, timeend, timespacing) widthspacing = 50 widthstart = 0 widthend = 3 width = np.linspace(widthstart, widthend, widthspacing) reslist = [] matplotlib.rcparams['legend.fontsize'] = 10 fig = pyplot.figure() ax = fig.gca(projection = '3d...

php - Best Light server (Linux + Web server + Database) for Raspberry Pi -

i install web server database on raspberry pi (little computer). computer has 1gb ram. i want know best combination: linux distribution , web server , dbms run local server multiple users minimal latency, use php on server. , best settings performance , not have bugs (memory usage, disable plugin, disable service, etc)? i thought light debian , lighttpd server , sqlite database. solution? i think lighttpd + sqlite great choice. linux distro, debian @ centos or tiny core linux , although i'm not sure of compatibility pi. obviously, can't go wrong raspbian if want use in production , more stable performance, few more pi's , set them in cluster .
