OWSLIB... what next

Hey Folks,

Put together a package with setup.hint

tared it
bziped it

created a new directory under release (owslib)

Copied the tar.bz2 and .hint files over

ran the CGI script from a web page

Reloaded the setup program with th -t switch.

Listed full list of packages and no glorry.

Could someone look over it and let me know where I messed up?

I feel close... it was relatively painless so far.

Cheers

Hi Dave,

You made two mistakes with setup.hint:

- was actually named setup.hint.txt
- and "requires:" was empty.

I renamed setup.hint properly and added "msvcrt" to requires (msvcrt is
guaranteed present as it's part of the minimal initial install). Now the
setup_test.ini has been updated. Carry on with testing :)

cheers,

matt wilkie

I think setup.hint is missing a dependency to python.

I have it. I even see a new Python branch in the tree.

Thanks all for the help... I almost made it alone   :)

So I succeeded aftera brief batlle with the setup.exe failing to
recognize the tar.bz2. First as a a valid bz2 and second as a valid tar.

I was using 7zip application under a virtualized windows install.

The fix was to install gnuwin32 versions of tar and bzip. Kinda annoying
cause the shipped version of tar does not pass to bz2 so had to do it in
two steps.

but the final product worked.

My plugin fully installed and did what it was supposed to do.

owslib also worked from the command line for a few preliminary tests.

So I went the next step and promoted it (hope that was ok to do).

So I will ask for some help from the qgis community to try it out in the
osge4w installs.

Perhaps the rest of the OSGEO community might be intereste din the
presence of this new library in osgeo4w?  IS there a proper mechanism
for this or should I go at it alone?

Cheers

I wonder what I might try to package next...

Cheers

Yeah the 7z thing is a pain. Unlike your experience, when I used
Gnuwin32's bzip2 it also produced archives which can't be understood by
setup.exe. Ditto for cygwin. I have to use the tar and bzip2 on
osgeo4w's server.  I created ticket for this issue, 101, and added
warning  note to wiki Packaging Instructions.

cheers,
