Create OS packages from Python projects using Docker containers

IMPORTANT: This fork is no longer maintained. The official home of vdist can now be found here


Welcome to the home of vdist, a tool that lets you create OS packages from your Python applications in a clean and self contained manner. It uses virtualenv, Docker and fpm under the hood, and it uses Jinja2 to render its templates for each individual target OS.

vdist is currently in alpha stage, but it should work just fine. Issues, feature requests, pull requests etc. are very welcome!

The official documentation for vdist can be found on ReadTheDocs
