So if you have a particular - issue or issues to which you've been subscribed, you will - want to "watch" the equivalent issue in Github. - The Bitbucket project will be retained for the indefinite - future, but Github now hosts the canonical project repository. - -20.3.1 ------- - -* Issue #519: Remove import hook when reloading the - ``pkg_resources`` module. -* BB Pull Request #184: Update documentation in ``pkg_resources`` - around new ``Requirement`` implementation. - -20.3 ----- - -* BB Pull Request #179: ``pkg_resources.Requirement`` objects are - now a subclass of ``packaging.requirements.Requirement``, - allowing any environment markers and url (if any) to be - affiliated with the requirement -* BB Pull Request #179: Restore use of RequirementParseError - exception unintentionally dropped in 20.2. - -20.2.2 ------- - -* Issue #502: Correct regression in parsing of multiple - version specifiers separated by commas and spaces. - -20.2.1 ------- - -* Issue #499: Restore compatiblity for legacy versions - by bumping to packaging 16.4. - -20.2 ----- - -* Changelog now includes release dates and links to PEPs. -* BB Pull Request #173: Replace dual PEP 345 _markerlib implementation - and PEP 426 implementation of environment marker support from - packaging 16.1 and PEP 508. Fixes Issue #122. - See also BB Pull Request #175, BB Pull Request #168, and - BB Pull Request #164. Additionally: - - - ``Requirement.parse`` no longer retains the order of extras. - - ``parse_requirements`` now requires that all versions be - PEP-440 compliant, as revealed in #499. Packages released - with invalid local versions should be re-released using - the proper local version syntax, e.g. ``mypkg-1.0+myorg.1``. - -20.1.1 ------- - -* Update ``upload_docs`` command to also honor keyring - for password resolution. - -20.1 ----- - -* Added support for using passwords from keyring in the upload - command. See `the upload docs - <http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.html#upload-upload-source-and-or-egg-distributions-to-pypi>`_ - for details. - -20.0 ----- - -* Issue #118: Once again omit the package metadata (egg-info) - from the list of outputs in ``--record``.

Use this command to launch - distutils-only packages under setuptools in the same way that - pip does, causing the setuptools monkeypatching of distutils - to be invoked prior to invoking a script. Useful for debugging - or otherwise installing a distutils-only package under - setuptools when pip isn't available or otherwise does not - expose the desired functionality. For example:: - - $ python -m setuptools.launch setup.py develop - -* Issue #488: Fix dual manifestation of Extension class in - extension packages installed as dependencies when Cython - is present. - -19.5 ----- - -* Issue #486: Correct TypeError when getfilesystemencoding - returns None. -* Issue #139: Clarified the license as MIT. -* BB Pull Request #169: Removed special handling of command - spec in scripts for Jython. - -19.4.1 ------- - -* Issue #487: Use direct invocation of ``importlib.machinery`` - in ``pkg_resources`` to avoid missing detection on relevant - platforms. - -19.4 ----- - -* Issue #341: Correct error in path handling of package data - files in ``build_py`` command when package is empty. -* Distribute #323, Issue #141, Issue #207, and - BB Pull Request #167: Another implementation of - ``pkg_resources.WorkingSet`` and ``pkg_resources.Distribution`` - that supports replacing an extant package with a new one, - allowing for setup_requires dependencies to supersede installed - packages for the session. - -19.3 ----- - -* Issue #229: Implement new technique for readily incorporating - dependencies conditionally from vendored copies or primary - locations. Adds a new dependency on six. - -19.2 ----- - -* BB Pull Request #163: Add get_command_list method to Distribution. -* BB Pull Request #162: Add missing whitespace to multiline string - literals. - -19.1.1 ------- - -* Issue #476: Cast version to string (using default encoding) - to avoid creating Unicode types on Python 2 clients. -* Issue #477: In Powershell downloader, use explicit rendering - of strings, rather than rely on ``repr``, which can be - incorrect (especially on Python 2). - -19.1 ----- - -* Issue #215: The bootstrap script ``ez_setup.py`` now - automatically detects - the latest version of setuptools (using PyPI JSON API) rather - than hard-coding a particular value. -* Issue #475: Fix incorrect usage in _translate_metadata2. - -19.0 ----- - -* Issue #442: Use RawConfigParser for parsing .pypirc file. - Interpolated values are no longer honored in .pypirc files. - -18.8.1 ------- - -* Issue #440: Prevent infinite recursion when a SandboxViolation - or other UnpickleableException occurs in a sandbox context - with setuptools hidden. Fixes regression introduced in Setuptools - 12.0. - -18.8 ----- - -* Deprecated ``egg_info.get_pkg_info_revision``. -* Issue #471: Don't rely on repr for an HTML attribute value in - package_index. -* Issue #419: Avoid errors in FileMetadata when the metadata directory - is broken. -* Issue #472: Remove deprecated use of 'U' in mode parameter - when opening files. - -18.7.1 ------- - -* Issue #469: Refactored logic for Issue #419 fix to re-use metadata - loading from Provider. - -18.7 ----- - -* Update dependency on certify. -* BB Pull Request #160: Improve detection of gui script in - ``easy_install._adjust_header``. -* Made ``test.test_args`` a non-data property; alternate fix - for the issue reported in BB Pull Request #155. -* Issue #453: In ``ez_setup`` bootstrap module, unload all - ``pkg_resources`` modules following download. -* BB Pull Request #158: Honor PEP-488 when excluding - files for namespace packages. -* Issue #419 and BB Pull Request #144: Add experimental support for - reading the version info from distutils-installed metadata rather - than using the version in the filename. - -18.6.1 ------- - -* Issue #464: Correct regression in invocation of superclass on old-style - class on Python 2. - -18.6 ----- - -* Issue #439: When installing entry_point scripts under development, - omit the version number of the package, allowing any version of the - package to be used. - -18.5 ----- - -* In preparation for dropping support for Python 3.2, a warning is - now logged when pkg_resources is imported on Python 3.2 or earlier - Python 3 versions. -* `Add support for python_platform_implementation environment marker - <https://github.com/jaraco/setuptools/pull/28>`_. -* `Fix dictionary mutation during iteration - <https://github.com/jaraco/setuptools/pull/29>`_. - -18.4 ----- - -* Issue #446: Test command now always invokes unittest, even - if no test suite is supplied. - -18.3.2 ------- - -* Correct another regression in setuptools.findall - where the fix for Python #12885 was lost. - -18.3.1 ------- - -* Issue #425: Correct regression in setuptools.findall. - -18.3 ----- - -* Setuptools now allows disabling of the manipulation of the sys.path - during the processing of the easy-install.pth file. To do so, set - the environment variable ``SETUPTOOLS_SYS_PATH_TECHNIQUE`` to - anything but "rewrite" (consider "raw"). During any install operation - with manipulation disabled, setuptools packages will be appended to - sys.path naturally. - - Future versions may change the default behavior to disable - manipulation. If so, the default behavior can be retained by setting - the variable to "rewrite". - -* Issue #257: ``easy_install --version`` now shows more detail - about the installation location and Python version. - -* Refactor setuptools.findall in preparation for re-submission - back to distutils. - -18.2 ----- - -* Issue #412: More efficient directory search in ``find_packages``. - -18.1 ----- - -* Upgrade to vendored packaging 15.3. - -18.0.1 ------- - -* Issue #401: Fix failure in test suite. - -18.0 ----- - -* Dropped support for builds with Pyrex. Only Cython is supported. -* Issue #288: Detect Cython later in the build process, after - ``setup_requires`` dependencies are resolved. - Projects backed by Cython can now be readily built - with a ``setup_requires`` dependency. For example:: - - ext = setuptools.Extension('mylib', ['src/CythonStuff.pyx', 'src/CStuff.c']) - setuptools.setup( - ... - ext_modules=[ext], - setup_requires=['cython'], - ) - - For compatibility with older versions of setuptools, packagers should - still include ``src/CythonMod.c`` in the source distributions or - require that Cython be present before building source distributions. - However, for systems with this build of setuptools, Cython will be - downloaded on demand. -* Issue #396: Fixed test failure on OS X. -* BB Pull Request #136: Remove excessive quoting from shebang headers - for Jython. - -17.1.1 ------- - -* Backed out unintended changes to pkg_resources, restoring removal of - deprecated imp module (`ref - <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/commits/f572ec9563d647fa8d4ffc534f2af8070ea07a8b#comment-1881283>`_). - -17.1 ----- - -* Issue #380: Add support for range operators on environment - marker evaluation. - -17.0 ----- - -* Issue #378: Do not use internal importlib._bootstrap module. -* Issue #390: Disallow console scripts with path separators in - the name. Removes unintended functionality and brings behavior - into parity with pip. - -16.0 ----- - -* BB Pull Request #130: Better error messages for errors in - parsed requirements. -* BB Pull Request #133: Removed ``setuptools.tests`` from the - installed packages. -* BB Pull Request #129: Address deprecation warning due to usage - of imp module. - -15.2 ----- - -* Issue #373: Provisionally expose - ``pkg_resources._initialize_master_working_set``, allowing for - imperative re-initialization of the master working set. - -15.1 ----- - -* Updated to Packaging 15.1 to address Packaging #28. -* Fix ``setuptools.sandbox._execfile()`` with Python 3.1. - -15.0 ----- - -* BB Pull Request #126: DistributionNotFound message now lists the package or - packages that required it. E.g.:: - - pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'colorama>=0.3.1' distribution was not found and is required by smlib.log. - - Note that zc.buildout once dependended on the string rendering of this - message to determine the package that was not found. This expectation - has since been changed, but older versions of buildout may experience - problems. See Buildout #242 for details. - -14.3.1 ------- - -* Issue #307: Removed PEP-440 warning during parsing of versions - in ``pkg_resources.Distribution``. -* Issue #364: Replace deprecated usage with recommended usage of - ``EntryPoint.load``. - -14.3 ----- - -* Issue #254: When creating temporary egg cache on Unix, use mode 755 - for creating the directory to avoid the subsequent warning if - the directory is group writable. - -14.2 ----- - -* Issue #137: Update ``Distribution.hashcmp`` so that Distributions with - None for pyversion or platform can be compared against Distributions - defining those attributes. - -14.1.1 ------- - -* Issue #360: Removed undesirable behavior from test runs, preventing - write tests and installation to system site packages. - -14.1 ----- - -* BB Pull Request #125: Add ``__ne__`` to Requirement class. -* Various refactoring of easy_install. - -14.0 ----- - -* Bootstrap script now accepts ``--to-dir`` to customize save directory or - allow for re-use of existing repository of setuptools versions. See - BB Pull Request #112 for background. -* Issue #285: ``easy_install`` no longer will default to installing - packages to the "user site packages" directory if it is itself installed - there. Instead, the user must pass ``--user`` in all cases to install - packages to the user site packages. - This behavior now matches that of "pip install". To configure - an environment to always install to the user site packages, consider - using the "install-dir" and "scripts-dir" parameters to easy_install - through an appropriate distutils config file. - -13.0.2 ------- - -* Issue #359: Include pytest.ini in the sdist so invocation of py.test on the - sdist honors the pytest configuration. - -13.0.1 ------- - -Re-release of 13.0. Intermittent connectivity issues caused the release -process to fail and PyPI uploads no longer accept files for 13.0. - -13.0 ----- - -* Issue #356: Back out BB Pull Request #119 as it requires Setuptools 10 or later - as the source during an upgrade. -* Removed build_py class from setup.py. According to 892f439d216e, this - functionality was added to support upgrades from old Distribute versions, - 0.6.5 and 0.6.6. - -12.4 ----- - -* BB Pull Request #119: Restore writing of ``setup_requires`` to metadata - (previously added in 8.4 and removed in 9.0). - -12.3 ----- - -* Documentation is now linked using the rst.linker package. -* Fix ``setuptools.command.easy_install.extract_wininst_cfg()`` - with Python 2.6 and 2.7. -* Issue #354. Added documentation on building setuptools - documentation. - -12.2 ----- - -* Issue #345: Unload all modules under pkg_resources during - ``ez_setup.use_setuptools()``. -* Issue #336: Removed deprecation from ``ez_setup.use_setuptools``, - as it is clearly still used by buildout's bootstrap. ``ez_setup`` - remains deprecated for use by individual packages. -* Simplified implementation of ``ez_setup.use_setuptools``. - -12.1 ----- - -* BB Pull Request #118: Soften warning for non-normalized versions in - Distribution. - -12.0.5 ------- - -* Issue #339: Correct Attribute reference in ``cant_write_to_target``. -* Issue #336: Deprecated ``ez_setup.use_setuptools``. - -12.0.4 ------- - -* Issue #335: Fix script header generation on Windows. - -12.0.3 ------- - -* Fixed incorrect class attribute in ``install_scripts``. Tests would be nice. - -12.0.2 ------- - -* Issue #331: Fixed ``install_scripts`` command on Windows systems corrupting - the header. - -12.0.1 ------- - -* Restore ``setuptools.command.easy_install.sys_executable`` for pbr - compatibility. For the future, tools should construct a CommandSpec - explicitly. - -12.0 ----- - -* Issue #188: Setuptools now support multiple entities in the value for - ``build.executable``, such that an executable of "/usr/bin/env my-python" may - be specified. This means that systems with a specified executable whose name - has spaces in the path must be updated to escape or quote that value. -* Deprecated ``easy_install.ScriptWriter.get_writer``, replaced by ``.best()`` - with slightly different semantics (no force_windows flag). - -11.3.1 ------- - -* Issue #327: Formalize and restore support for any printable character in an - entry point name. - -11.3 ----- - -* Expose ``EntryPoint.resolve`` in place of EntryPoint._load, implementing the - simple, non-requiring load. Deprecated all uses of ``EntryPoint._load`` - except for calling with no parameters, which is just a shortcut for - ``ep.require(); ep.resolve();``. - - Apps currently invoking ``ep.load(require=False)`` should instead do the - following if wanting to avoid the deprecating warning:: - - getattr(ep, "resolve", lambda: ep.load(require=False))() - -11.2 ----- - -* Pip #2326: Report deprecation warning at stacklevel 2 for easier diagnosis. - -11.1 ----- - -* Issue #281: Since Setuptools 6.1 (Issue #268), a ValueError would be raised - in certain cases where VersionConflict was raised with two arguments, which - occurred in ``pkg_resources.WorkingSet.find``. This release adds support - for indicating the dependent packages while maintaining support for - a VersionConflict when no dependent package context is known. New unit tests - now capture the expected interface. - -11.0 ----- - -* Interop #3: Upgrade to Packaging 15.0; updates to PEP 440 so that >1.7 does - not exclude 1.7.1 but does exclude 1.7.0 and 1.7.0.post1. - -10.2.1 ------- - -* Issue #323: Fix regression in entry point name parsing. - -10.2 ----- - -* Deprecated use of EntryPoint.load(require=False). Passing a boolean to a - function to select behavior is an anti-pattern. Instead use - ``Entrypoint._load()``. -* Substantial refactoring of all unit tests. Tests are now much leaner and - re-use a lot of fixtures and contexts for better clarity of purpose. - -10.1 ----- - -* Issue #320: Added a compatibility implementation of - ``sdist._default_revctrl`` - so that systems relying on that interface do not fail (namely, Ubuntu 12.04 - and similar Debian releases). - -10.0.1 ------- - -* Issue #319: Fixed issue installing pure distutils packages. - -10.0 ----- - -* Issue #313: Removed built-in support for subversion. Projects wishing to - retain support for subversion will need to use a third party library. The - extant implementation is being ported to `setuptools_svn - <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools_svn>`_. -* Issue #315: Updated setuptools to hide its own loaded modules during - installation of another package. This change will enable setuptools to - upgrade (or downgrade) itself even when its own metadata and implementation - change. - -9.1 ---- - -* Prefer vendored packaging library `as recommended - <https://github.com/jaraco/setuptools/commit/170657b68f4b92e7e1bf82f5e19a831f5744af67#commitcomment-9109448>`_. - -9.0.1 ------ - -* Issue #312: Restored presence of pkg_resources API tests (doctest) to sdist. - -9.0 ---- - -* Issue #314: Disabled support for ``setup_requires`` metadata to avoid issue - where Setuptools was unable to upgrade over earlier versions. - -8.4 ---- - -* BB Pull Request #106: Now write ``setup_requires`` metadata. - -8.3 ---- - -* Issue #311: Decoupled pkg_resources from setuptools once again. - ``pkg_resources`` is now a package instead of a module. - -8.2.1 ------ - -* Issue #306: Suppress warnings about Version format except in select scenarios - (such as installation). - -8.2 ---- - -* BB Pull Request #85: Search egg-base when adding egg-info to manifest. - -8.1 ---- - -* Upgrade ``packaging`` to 14.5, giving preference to "rc" as designator for - release candidates over "c". -* PEP-440 warnings are now raised as their own class, - ``pkg_resources.PEP440Warning``, instead of RuntimeWarning. -* Disabled warnings on empty versions. - -8.0.4 ------ - -* Upgrade ``packaging`` to 14.4, fixing an error where there is a - different result for if 2.0.5 is contained within >2.0dev and >2.0.dev even - though normalization rules should have made them equal. -* Issue #296: Add warning when a version is parsed as legacy. This warning will - make it easier for developers to recognize deprecated version numbers. - -8.0.3 ------ - -* Issue #296: Restored support for ``__hash__`` on parse_version results. - -8.0.2 ------ - -* Issue #296: Restored support for ``__getitem__`` and sort operations on - parse_version result. - -8.0.1 ------ - -* Issue #296: Restore support for iteration over parse_version result, but - deprecated that usage with a warning. Fixes failure with buildout. - -8.0 ---- - -* Implement PEP 440 within - pkg_resources and setuptools. This change - deprecates some version numbers such that they will no longer be installable - without using the ``===`` escape hatch. See `the changes to test_resources - <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/commits/dcd552da643c4448056de84c73d56da6d70769d5#chg-setuptools/tests/test_resources.py>`_ - for specific examples of version numbers and specifiers that are no longer - supported. Setuptools now "vendors" the `packaging - <https://github.com/pypa/packaging>`_ library. - -7.0 ---- - -* Issue #80, Issue #209: Eggs that are downloaded for ``setup_requires``, - ``test_requires``, etc. are now placed in a ``./.eggs`` directory instead of - directly in the current directory. This choice of location means the files - can be readily managed (removed, ignored). Additionally, - later phases or invocations of setuptools will not detect the package as - already installed and ignore it for permanent install (See #209). - - This change is indicated as backward-incompatible as installations that - depend on the installation in the current directory will need to account for - the new location. Systems that ignore ``*.egg`` will probably need to be - adapted to ignore ``.eggs``. The files will need to be manually moved or - will be retrieved again. Most use cases will require no attention. - -6.1 ---- - -* Issue #268: When resolving package versions, a VersionConflict now reports - which package previously required the conflicting version. - -6.0.2 ------ - -* Issue #262: Fixed regression in pip install due to egg-info directories - being omitted. Re-opens Issue #118. - -6.0.1 ------ - -* Issue #259: Fixed regression with namespace package handling on ``single - version, externally managed`` installs. - -6.0 ---- - -* Issue #100: When building a distribution, Setuptools will no longer match - default files using platform-dependent case sensitivity, but rather will - only match the files if their case matches exactly. As a result, on Windows - and other case-insensitive file systems, files with names such as - 'readme.txt' or 'README.TXT' will be omitted from the distribution and a - warning will be issued indicating that 'README.txt' was not found. Other - filenames affected are: - - - README.rst - - README - - setup.cfg - - setup.py (or the script name) - - test/test*.py - - Any users producing distributions with filenames that match those above - case-insensitively, but not case-sensitively, should rename those files in - their repository for better portability. -* BB Pull Request #72: When using ``single_version_externally_managed``, the - exclusion list now includes Python 3.2 ``__pycache__`` entries. -* BB Pull Request #76 and BB Pull Request #78: lines in top_level.txt are now - ordered deterministically. -* Issue #118: The egg-info directory is now no longer included in the list - of outputs. -* Issue #258: Setuptools now patches distutils msvc9compiler to - recognize the specially-packaged compiler package for easy extension module - support on Python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.2. - -5.8 ---- - -* Issue #237: ``pkg_resources`` now uses explicit detection of Python 2 vs. - Python 3, supporting environments where builtins have been patched to make - Python 3 look more like Python 2. - -5.7 ---- - -* Issue #240: Based on real-world performance measures against 5.4, zip - manifests are now cached in all circumstances. The - ``PKG_RESOURCES_CACHE_ZIP_MANIFESTS`` environment variable is no longer - relevant. The observed "memory increase" referenced in the 5.4 release - notes and detailed in Issue #154 was likely not an increase over the status - quo, but rather only an increase over not storing the zip info at all. - -5.6 ---- - -* Issue #242: Use absolute imports in svn_utils to avoid issues if the - installing package adds an xml module to the path. - -5.5.1 ------ - -* Issue #239: Fix typo in 5.5 such that fix did not take. - -5.5 ---- - -* Issue #239: Setuptools now includes the setup_requires directive on - Distribution objects and validates the syntax just like install_requires - and tests_require directives. - -5.4.2 ------ - -* Issue #236: Corrected regression in execfile implementation for Python 2.6. - -5.4.1 ------ - -* Python #7776: (ssl_support) Correct usage of host for validation when - tunneling for HTTPS. - -5.4 ---- - -* Issue #154: ``pkg_resources`` will now cache the zip manifests rather than - re-processing the same file from disk multiple times, but only if the - environment variable ``PKG_RESOURCES_CACHE_ZIP_MANIFESTS`` is set. Clients - that package many modules in the same zip file will see some improvement - in startup time by enabling this feature. This feature is not enabled by - default because it causes a substantial increase in memory usage. - -5.3 ---- - -* Issue #185: Make svn tagging work on the new style SVN metadata. - Thanks cazabon! -* Prune revision control directories (e.g .svn) from base path - as well as sub-directories. - -5.2 ---- - -* Added a `Developer Guide - <https://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/developer-guide.html>`_ to the official - documentation. -* Some code refactoring and cleanup was done with no intended behavioral - changes. -* During install_egg_info, the generated lines for namespace package .pth - files are now processed even during a dry run. - -5.1 ---- - -* Issue #202: Implemented more robust cache invalidation for the ZipImporter, - building on the work in Issue #168. Special thanks to Jurko Gospodnetic and - PJE. - -5.0.2 ------ - -* Issue #220: Restored script templates. - -5.0.1 ------ - -* Renamed script templates to end with .tmpl now that they no longer need - to be processed by 2to3. Fixes spurious syntax errors during build/install. - -5.0 ---- - -* Issue #218: Re-release of 3.8.1 to signal that it supersedes 4.x. -* Incidentally, script templates were updated not to include the triple-quote - escaping. - -3.7.1 and 3.8.1 and 4.0.1 -------------------------- - -* Issue #213: Use legacy StringIO behavior for compatibility under pbr. -* Issue #218: Setuptools 3.8.1 superseded 4.0.1, and 4.x was removed - from the available versions to install. - -4.0 ---- - -* Issue #210: ``setup.py develop`` now copies scripts in binary mode rather - than text mode, matching the behavior of the ``install`` command. - -3.8 ---- - -* Extend Issue #197 workaround to include all Python 3 versions prior to - 3.2.2. - -3.7 ---- - -* Issue #193: Improved handling of Unicode filenames when building manifests. - -3.6 ---- - -* Issue #203: Honor proxy settings for Powershell downloader in the bootstrap - routine. - -3.5.2 ------ - -* Issue #168: More robust handling of replaced zip files and stale caches. - Fixes ZipImportError complaining about a 'bad local header'. - -3.5.1 ------ - -* Issue #199: Restored ``install._install`` for compatibility with earlier - NumPy versions. - -3.5 ---- - -* Issue #195: Follow symbolic links in find_packages (restoring behavior - broken in 3.4). -* Issue #197: On Python 3.1, PKG-INFO is now saved in a UTF-8 encoding instead - of ``sys.getpreferredencoding`` to match the behavior on Python 2.6-3.4. -* Issue #192: Preferred bootstrap location is now - https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py (mirrored from former location). - -3.4.4 ------ - -* Issue #184: Correct failure where find_package over-matched packages - when directory traversal isn't short-circuited. - -3.4.3 ------ - -* Issue #183: Really fix test command with Python 3.1. - -3.4.2 ------ - -* Issue #183: Fix additional regression in test command on Python 3.1. - -3.4.1 ------ - -* Issue #180: Fix regression in test command not caught by py.test-run tests. - -3.4 ---- - -* Issue #176: Add parameter to the test command to support a custom test - runner: --test-runner or -r. -* Issue #177: Now assume most common invocation to install command on - platforms/environments without stack support (issuing a warning).

That is, the mere - declaration of a namespace package in an egg on ``sys.path`` no longer - causes it to be imported when ``pkg_resources`` is imported. Note that this - change means that all of a namespace package's ``__init__.py`` files must - include a ``declare_namespace()`` call in order to ensure that they will be - handled properly at runtime. In 2.x it was possible to get away without - including the declaration, but only at the cost of forcing namespace - packages to be imported early, which 3.0 no longer does. -* Issue #148: When building (bdist_egg), setuptools no longer adds - ``__init__.py`` files to namespace packages. Any packages that rely on this - behavior will need to create ``__init__.py`` files and include the - ``declare_namespace()``. -* Issue #7: Setuptools itself is now distributed as a zip archive in addition to - tar archive. ez_setup.py now uses zip archive. This approach avoids the potential - security vulnerabilities presented by use of tar archives in ez_setup.py. - It also leverages the security features added to ZipFile.extract in Python 2.7.4. -* Issue #65: Removed deprecated Features functionality. -* BB Pull Request #28: Remove backport of ``_bytecode_filenames`` which is - available in Python 2.6 and later, but also has better compatibility with - Python 3 environments. -* Issue #156: Fix spelling of __PYVENV_LAUNCHER__ variable. - -2.2 ---- - -* Issue #141: Restored fix for allowing setup_requires dependencies to - override installed dependencies during setup. -* Issue #128: Fixed issue where only the first dependency link was honored - in a distribution where multiple dependency links were supplied. - -2.1.2 ------ - -* Issue #144: Read long_description using codecs module to avoid errors - installing on systems where LANG=C. - -2.1.1 ------ - -* Issue #139: Fix regression in re_finder for CVS repos (and maybe Git repos - as well). - -2.1 ---- - -* Issue #129: Suppress inspection of ``*.whl`` files when searching for files - in a zip-imported file. -* Issue #131: Fix RuntimeError when constructing an egg fetcher. - -2.0.2 ------ - -* Fix NameError during installation with Python implementations (e.g. Jython) - not containing parser module. -* Fix NameError in ``sdist:re_finder``. - -2.0.1 ------ - -* Issue #124: Fixed error in list detection in upload_docs. - -2.0 ---- - -* Issue #121: Exempt lib2to3 pickled grammars from DirectorySandbox. -* Issue #41: Dropped support for Python 2.4 and Python 2.5. Clients requiring - setuptools for those versions of Python should use setuptools 1.x. -* Removed ``setuptools.command.easy_install.HAS_USER_SITE``. Clients - expecting this boolean variable should use ``site.ENABLE_USER_SITE`` - instead. -* Removed ``pkg_resources.ImpWrapper``. Clients that expected this class - should use ``pkgutil.ImpImporter`` instead. - -1.4.2 ------ - -* Issue #116: Correct TypeError when reading a local package index on Python - 3. - -1.4.1 ------ - -* Issue #114: Use ``sys.getfilesystemencoding`` for decoding config in - ``bdist_wininst`` distributions. - -* Issue #105 and Issue #113: Establish a more robust technique for - determining the terminal encoding:: - - 1. Try ``getpreferredencoding`` - 2. If that returns US_ASCII or None, try the encoding from - ``getdefaultlocale``. If that encoding was a "fallback" because Python - could not figure it out from the environment or OS, encoding remains - unresolved. - 3. If the encoding is resolved, then make sure Python actually implements - the encoding. - 4. On the event of an error or unknown codec, revert to fallbacks - (UTF-8 on Darwin, ASCII on everything else). - 5. On the encoding is 'mac-roman' on Darwin, use UTF-8 as 'mac-roman' was - a bug on older Python releases. - - On a side note, it would seem that the encoding only matters for when SVN - does not yet support ``--xml`` and when getting repository and svn version - numbers. The ``--xml`` technique should yield UTF-8 according to some - messages on the SVN mailing lists. So if the version numbers are always - 7-bit ASCII clean, it may be best to only support the file parsing methods - for legacy SVN releases and support for SVN without the subprocess command - would simple go away as support for the older SVNs does. - -1.4 ---- - -* Issue #27: ``easy_install`` will now use credentials from .pypirc if - present for connecting to the package index. -* BB Pull Request #21: Omit unwanted newlines in ``package_index._encode_auth`` - when the username/password pair length indicates wrapping. - -1.3.2 ------ - -* Issue #99: Fix filename encoding issues in SVN support. - -1.3.1 ------ - -* Remove exuberant warning in SVN support when SVN is not used. - -1.3 ---- - -* Address security vulnerability in SSL match_hostname check as reported in - Python #17997. -* Prefer `backports.ssl_match_hostname - <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/backports.ssl_match_hostname>`_ for backport - implementation if present. -* Correct NameError in ``ssl_support`` module (``socket.error``). - -1.2 ---- - -* Issue #26: Add support for SVN 1.7. Special thanks to Philip Thiem for the - contribution. -* Issue #93: Wheels are now distributed with every release. Note that as - reported in Issue #108, as of Pip 1.4, scripts aren't installed properly - from wheels. Therefore, if using Pip to install setuptools from a wheel, - the ``easy_install`` command will not be available. -* Setuptools "natural" launcher support, introduced in 1.0, is now officially - supported. - -1.1.7 ------ - -* Fixed behavior of NameError handling in 'script template (dev).py' (script - launcher for 'develop' installs). -* ``ez_setup.py`` now ensures partial downloads are cleaned up following - a failed download. -* Distribute #363 and Issue #55: Skip an sdist test that fails on locales - other than UTF-8. - -1.1.6 ------ - -* Distribute #349: ``sandbox.execfile`` now opens the target file in binary - mode, thus honoring a BOM in the file when compiled. - -1.1.5 ------ - -* Issue #69: Second attempt at fix (logic was reversed). - -1.1.4 ------ - -* Issue #77: Fix error in upload command (Python 2.4). - -1.1.3 ------ - -* Fix NameError in previous patch. - -1.1.2 ------ - -* Issue #69: Correct issue where 404 errors are returned for URLs with - fragments in them (such as #egg=). - -1.1.1 ------ - -* Issue #75: Add ``--insecure`` option to ez_setup.py to accommodate - environments where a trusted SSL connection cannot be validated. -* Issue #76: Fix AttributeError in upload command with Python 2.4. - -1.1 ---- - -* Issue #71 (Distribute #333): EasyInstall now puts less emphasis on the - condition when a host is blocked via ``--allow-hosts``. -* Issue #72: Restored Python 2.4 compatibility in ``ez_setup.py``. - -1.0 ---- - -* Issue #60: On Windows, Setuptools supports deferring to another launcher, - such as Vinay Sajip's `pylauncher <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/pylauncher>`_ - (included with Python 3.3) to launch console and GUI scripts and not install - its own launcher executables. This experimental functionality is currently - only enabled if the ``SETUPTOOLS_LAUNCHER`` environment variable is set to - "natural". In the future, this behavior may become default, but only after - it has matured and seen substantial adoption. The ``SETUPTOOLS_LAUNCHER`` - also accepts "executable" to force the default behavior of creating launcher - executables. -* Issue #63: Bootstrap script (ez_setup.py) now prefers Powershell, curl, or - wget for retrieving the Setuptools tarball for improved security of the - install. The script will still fall back to a simple ``urlopen`` on - platforms that do not have these tools. -* Issue #65: Deprecated the ``Features`` functionality. -* Issue #52: In ``VerifyingHTTPSConn``, handle a tunnelled (proxied) - connection. - -Backward-Incompatible Changes -============================= - -This release includes a couple of backward-incompatible changes, but most if -not all users will find 1.0 a drop-in replacement for 0.9. - -* Issue #50: Normalized API of environment marker support. Specifically, - removed line number and filename from SyntaxErrors when returned from - `pkg_resources.invalid_marker`. Any clients depending on the specific - string representation of exceptions returned by that function may need to - be updated to account for this change. -* Issue #50: SyntaxErrors generated by `pkg_resources.invalid_marker` are - normalized for cross-implementation consistency. -* Removed ``--ignore-conflicts-at-my-risk`` and ``--delete-conflicting`` - options to easy_install. These options have been deprecated since 0.6a11. - -0.9.8 ------ - -* Issue #53: Fix NameErrors in `_vcs_split_rev_from_url`. - -0.9.7 ------ - -* Issue #49: Correct AttributeError on PyPy where a hashlib.HASH object does - not have a `.name` attribute. -* Issue #34: Documentation now refers to bootstrap script in code repository - referenced by bookmark. -* Add underscore-separated keys to environment markers (markerlib). - -0.9.6 ------ - -* Issue #44: Test failure on Python 2.4 when MD5 hash doesn't have a `.name` - attribute. - -0.9.5 ------ - -* Python #17980: Fix security vulnerability in SSL certificate validation. - -0.9.4 ------ - -* Issue #43: Fix issue (introduced in 0.9.1) with version resolution when - upgrading over other releases of Setuptools. - -0.9.3 ------ - -* Issue #42: Fix new ``AttributeError`` introduced in last fix. - -0.9.2 ------ - -* Issue #42: Fix regression where blank checksums would trigger an - ``AttributeError``. - -0.9.1 ------ - -* Distribute #386: Allow other positional and keyword arguments to os.open. -* Corrected dependency on certifi mis-referenced in 0.9. - -0.9 ---- - -* `package_index` now validates hashes other than MD5 in download links. - -0.8 ---- - -* Code base now runs on Python 2.4 - Python 3.3 without Python 2to3 - conversion. - -0.7.8 ------ - -* Distribute #375: Yet another fix for yet another regression. - -0.7.7 ------ - -* Distribute #375: Repair AttributeError created in last release (redo). -* Issue #30: Added test for get_cache_path. - -0.7.6 ------ - -* Distribute #375: Repair AttributeError created in last release. - -0.7.5 ------ - -* Issue #21: Restore Python 2.4 compatibility in ``test_easy_install``. -* Distribute #375: Merged additional warning from Distribute 0.6.46. -* Now honor the environment variable - ``SETUPTOOLS_DISABLE_VERSIONED_EASY_INSTALL_SCRIPT`` in addition to the now - deprecated ``DISTRIBUTE_DISABLE_VERSIONED_EASY_INSTALL_SCRIPT``. - -0.7.4 ------ - -* Issue #20: Fix comparison of parsed SVN version on Python 3. - -0.7.3 ------ - -* Issue #1: Disable installation of Windows-specific files on non-Windows systems. -* Use new sysconfig module with Python 2.7 or >=3.2. - -0.7.2 ------ - -* Issue #14: Use markerlib when the `parser` module is not available. -* Issue #10: ``ez_setup.py`` now uses HTTPS to download setuptools from PyPI. - -0.7.1 ------ - -* Fix NameError (Issue #3) again - broken in bad merge. - -0.7 ---- - -* Merged Setuptools and Distribute. See docs/merge.txt for details. - -Added several features that were slated for setuptools 0.6c12: - -* Index URL now defaults to HTTPS. -* Added experimental environment marker support. Now clients may designate a - PEP-426 environment marker for "extra" dependencies. Setuptools uses this - feature in ``setup.py`` for optional SSL and certificate validation support - on older platforms. Based on Distutils-SIG discussions, the syntax is - somewhat tentative. There should probably be a PEP with a firmer spec before - the feature should be considered suitable for use. -* Added support for SSL certificate validation when installing packages from - an HTTPS service. - -0.7b4 ------ - -* Issue #3: Fixed NameError in SSL support. - -0.6.49 ------- - -* Move warning check in ``get_cache_path`` to follow the directory creation - to avoid errors when the cache path does not yet exist.

Easy_install now skips all directories when processing - metadata scripts. - -0.6.35 ------- - - -Note this release is backward-incompatible with distribute 0.6.23-0.6.34 in -how it parses version numbers. - -* Distribute #278: Restored compatibility with distribute 0.6.22 and setuptools - 0.6. Updated the documentation to match more closely with the version - parsing as intended in setuptools 0.6. - -0.6.34 ------- - -* Distribute #341: 0.6.33 fails to build under Python 2.4. - -0.6.33 ------- - -* Fix 2 errors with Jython 2.5. -* Fix 1 failure with Jython 2.5 and 2.7. -* Disable workaround for Jython scripts on Linux systems. -* Distribute #336: `setup.py` no longer masks failure exit code when tests fail. -* Fix issue in pkg_resources where try/except around a platform-dependent - import would trigger hook load failures on Mercurial.

This change should address - `virtualenv #359 <https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/359>`_ as long - as the system encoding is UTF-8 or the IO encoding is specified in the - environment, i.e.:: - - PYTHONIOENCODING=utf8 pip install numpy - -* Fix for encoding issue when installing from Windows executable on Python 3. -* Distribute #323: Allow `setup_requires` requirements to supercede installed - requirements. Added some new keyword arguments to existing pkg_resources - methods. Also had to updated how __path__ is handled for namespace packages - to ensure that when a new egg distribution containing a namespace package is - placed on sys.path, the entries in __path__ are found in the same order they - would have been in had that egg been on the path when pkg_resources was - first imported. - -0.6.30 ------- - -* Distribute #328: Clean up temporary directories in distribute_setup.py. -* Fix fatal bug in distribute_setup.py. - -0.6.29 ------- - -* BB Pull Request #14: Honor file permissions in zip files. -* Distribute #327: Merged pull request #24 to fix a dependency problem with pip. -* Merged pull request #23 to fix https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/301. -* If Sphinx is installed, the `upload_docs` command now runs `build_sphinx` - to produce uploadable documentation. -* Distribute #326: `upload_docs` provided mangled auth credentials under Python 3. -* Distribute #320: Fix check for "createable" in distribute_setup.py. -* Distribute #305: Remove a warning that was triggered during normal operations. -* Distribute #311: Print metadata in UTF-8 independent of platform. -* Distribute #303: Read manifest file with UTF-8 encoding under Python 3. -* Distribute #301: Allow to run tests of namespace packages when using 2to3. -* Distribute #304: Prevent import loop in site.py under Python 3.3. -* Distribute #283: Reenable scanning of `*.pyc` / `*.pyo` files on Python 3.3. -* Distribute #299: The develop command didn't work on Python 3, when using 2to3, - as the egg link would go to the Python 2 source.

This closes Distribute #3. - -0.6c9 ------ - - * Fixed a missing files problem when using Windows source distributions on - non-Windows platforms, due to distutils not handling manifest file line - endings correctly. - - * Updated Pyrex support to work with Pyrex 0.9.6 and higher. - - * Minor changes for Jython compatibility, including skipping tests that can't - work on Jython. - - * Fixed not installing eggs in ``install_requires`` if they were also used for - ``setup_requires`` or ``tests_require``. - - * Fixed not fetching eggs in ``install_requires`` when running tests. - - * Allow ``ez_setup.use_setuptools()`` to upgrade existing setuptools - installations when called from a standalone ``setup.py``. - - * Added a warning if a namespace package is declared, but its parent package - is not also declared as a namespace. - - * Support Subversion 1.5 - - * Removed use of deprecated ``md5`` module if ``hashlib`` is available - - * Fixed ``bdist_wininst upload`` trying to upload the ``.exe`` twice - - * Fixed ``bdist_egg`` putting a ``native_libs.txt`` in the source package's - ``.egg-info``, when it should only be in the built egg's ``EGG-INFO``. - - * Ensure that _full_name is set on all shared libs before extensions are - checked for shared lib usage. (Fixes a bug in the experimental shared - library build support.) - - * Fix to allow unpacked eggs containing native libraries to fail more - gracefully under Google App Engine (with an ``ImportError`` loading the - C-based module, instead of getting a ``NameError``). - -0.6c7 ------ - - * Fixed ``distutils.filelist.findall()`` crashing on broken symlinks, and - ``egg_info`` command failing on new, uncommitted SVN directories. - - * Fix import problems with nested namespace packages installed via - ``--root`` or ``--single-version-externally-managed``, due to the - parent package not having the child package as an attribute. - -0.6c6 ------ - - * Added ``--egg-path`` option to ``develop`` command, allowing you to force - ``.egg-link`` files to use relative paths (allowing them to be shared across - platforms on a networked drive). - - * Fix not building binary RPMs correctly. - - * Fix "eggsecutables" (such as setuptools' own egg) only being runnable with - bash-compatible shells. - - * Fix ``#!`` parsing problems in Windows ``.exe`` script wrappers, when there - was whitespace inside a quoted argument or at the end of the ``#!`` line - (a regression introduced in 0.6c4). - - * Fix ``test`` command possibly failing if an older version of the project - being tested was installed on ``sys.path`` ahead of the test source - directory. - - * Fix ``find_packages()`` treating ``ez_setup`` and directories with ``.`` in - their names as packages. - -0.6c5 ------ - - * Fix uploaded ``bdist_rpm`` packages being described as ``bdist_egg`` - packages under Python versions less than 2.5. - - * Fix uploaded ``bdist_wininst`` packages being described as suitable for - "any" version by Python 2.5, even if a ``--target-version`` was specified. - -0.6c4 ------ - - * Overhauled Windows script wrapping to support ``bdist_wininst`` better. - Scripts installed with ``bdist_wininst`` will always use ``#!python.exe`` or - ``#!pythonw.exe`` as the executable name (even when built on non-Windows - platforms!), and the wrappers will look for the executable in the script's - parent directory (which should find the right version of Python). - - * Fix ``upload`` command not uploading files built by ``bdist_rpm`` or - ``bdist_wininst`` under Python 2.3 and 2.4. - - * Add support for "eggsecutable" headers: a ``#!/bin/sh`` script that is - prepended to an ``.egg`` file to allow it to be run as a script on Unix-ish - platforms. (This is mainly so that setuptools itself can have a single-file - installer on Unix, without doing multiple downloads, dealing with firewalls, - etc.) - - * Fix problem with empty revision numbers in Subversion 1.4 ``entries`` files - - * Use cross-platform relative paths in ``easy-install.pth`` when doing - ``develop`` and the source directory is a subdirectory of the installation - target directory. - - * Fix a problem installing eggs with a system packaging tool if the project - contained an implicit namespace package; for example if the ``setup()`` - listed a namespace package ``foo.bar`` without explicitly listing ``foo`` - as a namespace package. - -0.6c3 ------ - - * Fixed breakages caused by Subversion 1.4's new "working copy" format - -0.6c2 ------ - - * The ``ez_setup`` module displays the conflicting version of setuptools (and - its installation location) when a script requests a version that's not - available. - - * Running ``setup.py develop`` on a setuptools-using project will now install - setuptools if needed, instead of only downloading the egg. - -0.6c1 ------ - - * Fixed ``AttributeError`` when trying to download a ``setup_requires`` - dependency when a distribution lacks a ``dependency_links`` setting. - - * Made ``zip-safe`` and ``not-zip-safe`` flag files contain a single byte, so - as to play better with packaging tools that complain about zero-length - files. - - * Made ``setup.py develop`` respect the ``--no-deps`` option, which it - previously was ignoring. - - * Support ``extra_path`` option to ``setup()`` when ``install`` is run in - backward-compatibility mode. - - * Source distributions now always include a ``setup.cfg`` file that explicitly - sets ``egg_info`` options such that they produce an identical version number - to the source distribution's version number. (Previously, the default - version number could be different due to the use of ``--tag-date``, or if - the version was overridden on the command line that built the source - distribution.) - -0.6b4 ------ - - * Fix ``register`` not obeying name/version set by ``egg_info`` command, if - ``egg_info`` wasn't explicitly run first on the same command line. - - * Added ``--no-date`` and ``--no-svn-revision`` options to ``egg_info`` - command, to allow suppressing tags configured in ``setup.cfg``. - - * Fixed redundant warnings about missing ``README`` file(s); it should now - appear only if you are actually a source distribution. - -0.6b3 ------ - - * Fix ``bdist_egg`` not including files in subdirectories of ``.egg-info``. - - * Allow ``.py`` files found by the ``include_package_data`` option to be - automatically included. Remove duplicate data file matches if both - ``include_package_data`` and ``package_data`` are used to refer to the same - files. - -0.6b1 ------ - - * Strip ``module`` from the end of compiled extension modules when computing - the name of a ``.py`` loader/wrapper. (Python's import machinery ignores - this suffix when searching for an extension module.) - -0.6a11 ------- - - * Added ``test_loader`` keyword to support custom test loaders - - * Added ``setuptools.file_finders`` entry point group to allow implementing - revision control plugins. - - * Added ``--identity`` option to ``upload`` command. - - * Added ``dependency_links`` to allow specifying URLs for ``--find-links``. - - * Enhanced test loader to scan packages as well as modules, and call - ``additional_tests()`` if present to get non-unittest tests. - - * Support namespace packages in conjunction with system packagers, by omitting - the installation of any ``__init__.py`` files for namespace packages, and - adding a special ``.pth`` file to create a working package in - ``sys.modules``. - - * Made ``--single-version-externally-managed`` automatic when ``--root`` is - used, so that most system packagers won't require special support for - setuptools. - - * Fixed ``setup_requires``, ``tests_require``, etc. not using ``setup.cfg`` or - other configuration files for their option defaults when installing, and - also made the install use ``--multi-version`` mode so that the project - directory doesn't need to support .pth files. - - * ``MANIFEST.in`` is now forcibly closed when any errors occur while reading - it. Previously, the file could be left open and the actual error would be - masked by problems trying to remove the open file on Windows systems. - -0.6a10 ------- - - * Fixed the ``develop`` command ignoring ``--find-links``. - -0.6a9 ------ - - * The ``sdist`` command no longer uses the traditional ``MANIFEST`` file to - create source distributions. ``MANIFEST.in`` is still read and processed, - as are the standard defaults and pruning. But the manifest is built inside - the project's ``.egg-info`` directory as ``SOURCES.txt``, and it is rebuilt - every time the ``egg_info`` command is run. - - * Added the ``include_package_data`` keyword to ``setup()``, allowing you to - automatically include any package data listed in revision control or - ``MANIFEST.in`` - - * Added the ``exclude_package_data`` keyword to ``setup()``, allowing you to - trim back files included via the ``package_data`` and - ``include_package_data`` options. - - * Fixed ``--tag-svn-revision`` not working when run from a source - distribution. - - * Added warning for namespace packages with missing ``declare_namespace()`` - - * Added ``tests_require`` keyword to ``setup()``, so that e.g. packages - requiring ``nose`` to run unit tests can make this dependency optional - unless the ``test`` command is run. - - * Made all commands that use ``easy_install`` respect its configuration - options, as this was causing some problems with ``setup.py install``. - - * Added an ``unpack_directory()`` driver to ``setuptools.archive_util``, so - that you can process a directory tree through a processing filter as if it - were a zipfile or tarfile. - - * Added an internal ``install_egg_info`` command to use as part of old-style - ``install`` operations, that installs an ``.egg-info`` directory with the - package. - - * Added a ``--single-version-externally-managed`` option to the ``install`` - command so that you can more easily wrap a "flat" egg in a system package. - - * Enhanced ``bdist_rpm`` so that it installs single-version eggs that - don't rely on a ``.pth`` file. The ``--no-egg`` option has been removed, - since all RPMs are now built in a more backwards-compatible format. - - * Support full roundtrip translation of eggs to and from ``bdist_wininst`` - format. Running ``bdist_wininst`` on a setuptools-based package wraps the - egg in an .exe that will safely install it as an egg (i.e., with metadata - and entry-point wrapper scripts), and ``easy_install`` can turn the .exe - back into an ``.egg`` file or directory and install it as such. - - -0.6a8 ------ - - * Fixed some problems building extensions when Pyrex was installed, especially - with Python 2.4 and/or packages using SWIG. - - * Made ``develop`` command accept all the same options as ``easy_install``, - and use the ``easy_install`` command's configuration settings as defaults. - - * Made ``egg_info --tag-svn-revision`` fall back to extracting the revision - number from ``PKG-INFO`` in case it is being run on a source distribution of - a snapshot taken from a Subversion-based project. - - * Automatically detect ``.dll``, ``.so`` and ``.dylib`` files that are being - installed as data, adding them to ``native_libs.txt`` automatically. - - * Fixed some problems with fresh checkouts of projects that don't include - ``.egg-info/PKG-INFO`` under revision control and put the project's source - code directly in the project directory. If such a package had any - requirements that get processed before the ``egg_info`` command can be run, - the setup scripts would fail with a "Missing 'Version:' header and/or - PKG-INFO file" error, because the egg runtime interpreted the unbuilt - metadata in a directory on ``sys.path`` (i.e. the current directory) as - being a corrupted egg. Setuptools now monkeypatches the distribution - metadata cache to pretend that the egg has valid version information, until - it has a chance to make it actually be so (via the ``egg_info`` command). - -0.6a5 ------ - - * Fixed missing gui/cli .exe files in distribution. Fixed bugs in tests. - -0.6a3 ------ - - * Added ``gui_scripts`` entry point group to allow installing GUI scripts - on Windows and other platforms. (The special handling is only for Windows; - other platforms are treated the same as for ``console_scripts``.) - -0.6a2 ------ - - * Added ``console_scripts`` entry point group to allow installing scripts - without the need to create separate script files. On Windows, console - scripts get an ``.exe`` wrapper so you can just type their name. On other - platforms, the scripts are written without a file extension. - -0.6a1 ------ - - * Added support for building "old-style" RPMs that don't install an egg for - the target package, using a ``--no-egg`` option. - - * The ``build_ext`` command now works better when using the ``--inplace`` - option and multiple Python versions. It now makes sure that all extensions - match the current Python version, even if newer copies were built for a - different Python version. - - * The ``upload`` command no longer attaches an extra ``.zip`` when uploading - eggs, as PyPI now supports egg uploads without trickery. - - * The ``ez_setup`` script/module now displays a warning before downloading - the setuptools egg, and attempts to check the downloaded egg against an - internal MD5 checksum table. - - * Fixed the ``--tag-svn-revision`` option of ``egg_info`` not finding the - latest revision number; it was using the revision number of the directory - containing ``setup.py``, not the highest revision number in the project. - - * Added ``eager_resources`` setup argument - - * The ``sdist`` command now recognizes Subversion "deleted file" entries and - does not include them in source distributions. - - * ``setuptools`` now embeds itself more thoroughly into the distutils, so that - other distutils extensions (e.g. py2exe, py2app) will subclass setuptools' - versions of things, rather than the native distutils ones. - - * Added ``entry_points`` and ``setup_requires`` arguments to ``setup()``; - ``setup_requires`` allows you to automatically find and download packages - that are needed in order to *build* your project (as opposed to running it). - - * ``setuptools`` now finds its commands, ``setup()`` argument validators, and - metadata writers using entry points, so that they can be extended by - third-party packages. See `Creating distutils Extensions - <http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.html#creating-distutils-extensions>`_ - for more details. - - * The vestigial ``depends`` command has been removed. It was never finished - or documented, and never would have worked without EasyInstall - which it - pre-dated and was never compatible with. - -0.5a12 ------- - - * The zip-safety scanner now checks for modules that might be used with - ``python -m``, and marks them as unsafe for zipping, since Python 2.4 can't - handle ``-m`` on zipped modules. - -0.5a11 ------- - - * Fix breakage of the "develop" command that was caused by the addition of - ``--always-unzip`` to the ``easy_install`` command. - -0.5a9 ------ - - * Include ``svn:externals`` directories in source distributions as well as - normal subversion-controlled files and directories. - - * Added ``exclude=patternlist`` option to ``setuptools.find_packages()`` - - * Changed --tag-svn-revision to include an "r" in front of the revision number - for better readability. - - * Added ability to build eggs without including source files (except for any - scripts, of course), using the ``--exclude-source-files`` option to - ``bdist_egg``. - - * ``setup.py install`` now automatically detects when an "unmanaged" package - or module is going to be on ``sys.path`` ahead of a package being installed, - thereby preventing the newer version from being imported. If this occurs, - a warning message is output to ``sys.stderr``, but installation proceeds - anyway. The warning message informs the user what files or directories - need deleting, and advises them they can also use EasyInstall (with the - ``--delete-conflicting`` option) to do it automatically. - - * The ``egg_info`` command now adds a ``top_level.txt`` file to the metadata - directory that lists all top-level modules and packages in the distribution. - This is used by the ``easy_install`` command to find possibly-conflicting - "unmanaged" packages when installing the distribution. - - * Added ``zip_safe`` and ``namespace_packages`` arguments to ``setup()``. - Added package analysis to determine zip-safety if the ``zip_safe`` flag - is not given, and advise the author regarding what code might need changing. - - * Fixed the swapped ``-d`` and ``-b`` options of ``bdist_egg``. - -0.5a8 ------ - - * The "egg_info" command now always sets the distribution metadata to "safe" - forms of the distribution name and version, so that distribution files will - be generated with parseable names (i.e., ones that don't include '-' in the - name or version). Also, this means that if you use the various ``--tag`` - options of "egg_info", any distributions generated will use the tags in the - version, not just egg distributions. - - * Added support for defining command aliases in distutils configuration files, - under the "[aliases]" section. To prevent recursion and to allow aliases to - call the command of the same name, a given alias can be expanded only once - per command-line invocation. You can define new aliases with the "alias" - command, either for the local, global, or per-user configuration. - - * Added "rotate" command to delete old distribution files, given a set of - patterns to match and the number of files to keep. (Keeps the most - recently-modified distribution files matching each pattern.) - - * Added "saveopts" command that saves all command-line options for the current - invocation to the local, global, or per-user configuration file. Useful for - setting defaults without having to hand-edit a configuration file. - - * Added a "setopt" command that sets a single option in a specified distutils - configuration file. - -0.5a7 ------ - - * Added "upload" support for egg and source distributions, including a bug - fix for "upload" and a temporary workaround for lack of .egg support in - PyPI. - -0.5a6 ------ - - * Beefed up the "sdist" command so that if you don't have a MANIFEST.in, it - will include all files under revision control (CVS or Subversion) in the - current directory, and it will regenerate the list every time you create a - source distribution, not just when you tell it to. This should make the - default "do what you mean" more often than the distutils' default behavior - did, while still retaining the old behavior in the presence of MANIFEST.in. - - * Fixed the "develop" command always updating .pth files, even if you - specified ``-n`` or ``--dry-run``. - - * Slightly changed the format of the generated version when you use - ``--tag-build`` on the "egg_info" command, so that you can make tagged - revisions compare *lower* than the version specified in setup.py (e.g. by - using ``--tag-build=dev``). - -0.5a5 ------ - - * Added ``develop`` command to ``setuptools``-based packages. This command - installs an ``.egg-link`` pointing to the package's source directory, and - script wrappers that ``execfile()`` the source versions of the package's - scripts. This lets you put your development checkout(s) on sys.path without - having to actually install them. (To uninstall the link, use - use ``setup.py develop --uninstall``.) - - * Added ``egg_info`` command to ``setuptools``-based packages. This command - just creates or updates the "projectname.egg-info" directory, without - building an egg. (It's used by the ``bdist_egg``, ``test``, and ``develop`` - commands.) - - * Enhanced the ``test`` command so that it doesn't install the package, but - instead builds any C extensions in-place, updates the ``.egg-info`` - metadata, adds the source directory to ``sys.path``, and runs the tests - directly on the source. This avoids an "unmanaged" installation of the - package to ``site-packages`` or elsewhere. - - * Made ``easy_install`` a standard ``setuptools`` command, moving it from - the ``easy_install`` module to ``setuptools.command.easy_install``. Note - that if you were importing or extending it, you must now change your imports - accordingly. ``easy_install.py`` is still installed as a script, but not as - a module. - -0.5a4 ------ - - * Setup scripts using setuptools can now list their dependencies directly in - the setup.py file, without having to manually create a ``depends.txt`` file. - The ``install_requires`` and ``extras_require`` arguments to ``setup()`` - are used to create a dependencies file automatically. If you are manually - creating ``depends.txt`` right now, please switch to using these setup - arguments as soon as practical, because ``depends.txt`` support will be - removed in the 0.6 release cycle. For documentation on the new arguments, - see the ``setuptools.dist.Distribution`` class. - - * Setup scripts using setuptools now always install using ``easy_install`` - internally, for ease of uninstallation and upgrading. - -0.5a1 ------ - - * Added support for "self-installation" bootstrapping. Packages can now - include ``ez_setup.py`` in their source distribution, and add the following - to their ``setup.py``, in order to automatically bootstrap installation of - setuptools as part of their setup process:: - - from ez_setup import use_setuptools - use_setuptools() - - from setuptools import setup - # etc... - -0.4a2 ------ - - * Added ``ez_setup.py`` installer/bootstrap script to make initial setuptools - installation easier, and to allow distributions using setuptools to avoid - having to include setuptools in their source distribution. - - * All downloads are now managed by the ``PackageIndex`` class (which is now - subclassable and replaceable), so that embedders can more easily override - download logic, give download progress reports, etc. The class has also - been moved to the new ``setuptools.package_index`` module. - - * The ``Installer`` class no longer handles downloading, manages a temporary - directory, or tracks the ``zip_ok`` option. Downloading is now handled - by ``PackageIndex``, and ``Installer`` has become an ``easy_install`` - command class based on ``setuptools.Command``. - - * There is a new ``setuptools.sandbox.run_setup()`` API to invoke a setup - script in a directory sandbox, and a new ``setuptools.archive_util`` module - with an ``unpack_archive()`` API. These were split out of EasyInstall to - allow reuse by other tools and applications. - - * ``setuptools.Command`` now supports reinitializing commands using keyword - arguments to set/reset options. Also, ``Command`` subclasses can now set - their ``command_consumes_arguments`` attribute to ``True`` in order to - receive an ``args`` option containing the rest of the command line. - -0.3a2 ------ - - * Added new options to ``bdist_egg`` to allow tagging the egg's version number - with a subversion revision number, the current date, or an explicit tag - value. Run ``setup.py bdist_egg --help`` to get more information. - - * Misc. bug fixes - -0.3a1 ------ - - * Initial release. - |
