the CLI (and all of fboss/py) code is not properly packaged up in OSS

Open capveg opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

There is a lot of good client side code in fboss/py/fboss/... that's not built/run/exposed. Need to package it up and make it usable.

Hi, do you have more detail on how this would preferably be packaged?

It shouldn't be too hard - it's just been one of many things to get to.

The work is:

  1. modify the CMakeFiles.txt to autogenerate and compile the python thrift structures
  2. Using what ever is the latest python packaging tool (that's probably based on distutils), put all of the packages from thrift and everything in ./fboss/py into a library
  3. Build a binary for the CLI (ideally called 'fboss') that installs and runs

Is this something you think you might be interested in helping with? Thanks for the interest!
