Add setup.py to allow pip install
Clone this repository and use python setup.py install
. After install, gyb
can be used on the command line anywhere (client_secrets.json
and oauth2service.json
need to be in the current directory or use --config-folder
).
For installation, you could also use pip install git+https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back.git
if this PR is accepted. (pip install got-your-back
might be possible if Mr. Lee wishes to use twine to upload the package to PyPI).
While I would have liked to import from gyb.py
on line 4 of setup.py, the packages in that module may not have been installed yet, leading to an import error. In an effort to modify as little of the original code as possible, I copied the values of the __author__
, __email__
, __program_name__
, and __version__
to get around this.
Line 56 of setup.py adds gyb
to the PATH. Tested on Windows (Python 3.12), MacOS (Python 3.11), and the python:3.12-slim
Docker container (Debian Linux).
The original gyb.py
script was modified as minimally as possible to allow setup.py
to make an entry point script. The behavior should be precisely the same whether or not it was installed with pip.
