This directory contains the code for the Python `brotli` module,
`bro.py` tool, and roundtrip tests.
2016-02-23 15:06:31 +00:00
Only Python 2.7+ is supported.
We provide a `Makefile` to simplify common development commands.
### Installation
2016-02-23 15:06:31 +00:00
If you just want to install the latest release of the Python `brotli`
module, we recommend installing from [PyPI][]:
$ pip install brotli
Alternatively, you may install directly from source by running the
following command from this directory:
$ make install
### Development
disable buidling/deployment of python wheels (#583) * [appveyor] remove 'deploy' stage; only test python 2.7 and 3.6 all the other python versions are being built and tested on https://github.com/google/brotli-wheels/blob/d571d63/appveyor.yml * remove terrify submodule as not needed any more * [travis] just test py2.7 and 3.6 on linux; remove extra osx python builds All the other python versions for OSX are being built/tested on: https://github.com/google/brotli-wheels/blob/d571d63/.travis.yml Also, there's no need to build and deploy wheels here, as that's done in the separate repository. * [setup.py] only rebuild if dependency are newer; fix typo in list of 'depends' https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/v3.6.2/Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py#L485-L500 * [ci] only run 'python setup.py test' if we run 'python setup.py built test', the setuptools 'test' command will forcibly re-run the build_ext subcommand because it wants to pass the --inplace option (it ignores whether it's up to date, just re-runs it all the time). with this we go from running built_ext twice, to running it only once per build * [Makefile] run 'build_ext --inplace' instead of 'develop' as default target The 'develop' command is like 'install' in the sense that it modifies the user's python environment. The default make target should be less intrusive, i.e. just building the extension module in-place without modify anything in the user's environment. We don't need to tell make about the dependency between 'test' and 'build' target as that is baked in the `python setup.py test` command. * [Makefile] add 'develop' target; remove unnecessary 'tests' target `make test` is good enough * [Makefile] `setup.py test` requires setuptools; run `python -m unittest` This will work even if setuptools is not installed, which is unlikely nowadays but still our `setup.py` works with plain distutils, so we may well have our tests work without setuptools. * [python/README.md] add ref to 'develop' target; remove 'tests', just 'make test' * [setup.py] import modules as per nicksay's comment https://github.com/google/brotli/pull/583#discussion_r131981049 * [Makefile] add 'develop' to .PHONY targets remove 'tests' from .PHONY * [appveyor] remove unused setup scripts We don't need to install custom python versions, we are using the pre-installed ones on Appveyor. * [appveyor] remove unneeded setup code

If you wish to make the module available while still being
able to edit the source files, you can use the `setuptools`
"[development mode][]":
$ make develop # Install the module in "development mode"
### Code Style
Brotli's code follows the [Google Python Style Guide][]. To
automatically format your code, first install [YAPF][]:
$ pip install yapf
Then, to format all files in the project, you can run:
$ make fix # Automatically format code
See the [YAPF usage][] documentation for more information.
