Re: Package and script naming
Hello,
For my question #2, I've looked in pitivi, and they do something like this :
(in an imaginary executable named script/spam, where a package "spam"
also exists in the same dir as "scripts".)
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import sys
def _is_in_devel():
d = os.path.split(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))[0]
return (
os.path.exists(os.path.join(d, ".hg")) or
os.path.exists(os.path.join(d, ".svn"))
)
if __name__ == "__main__":
if _is_in_devel():
d = os.path.split(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))[0]
sys.path.insert(0, d)
from spam import runner
runner.run()
