2. Usage: polyversion library

version:0.2.2a1 updated:2018-08-07T13:30:07.616687 Documentation:http://polyvers.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage-pvlib.html repository:https://github.com/JRCSTU/polyvers pypi-repo:https://pypi.org/project/polyversion/ copyright:2018 JRC.C4(STU), European Commission (JRC) license:MIT License

The python 2.7+ library needed by (sub-)projects managed by polyvers cmd to derive their version-ids on runtime from Git.

Specifically, the configuration file .polyvers.yaml is NOT read - you have to repeat any non-default configurations as function/method keywords when calling this API.

Here only a very rudimentary documentation is provided - consult polyvers documents provided in the link above.

Note

Only this library is (permissive) MIT-licensed, so it can be freely vendorized by any program - the respective polyvers command-line tool is “copylefted” under EUPLv1.2.

2.1. Quickstart

There are 4 ways to use this library:

• As a setuptools plugin;
• through its Python-API (to dynamically version your project);
• through its barebone cmdline tool: polyversion (installation required);
• through the standalone executable wheel: bin/pvlib.run (no installation, but sources required; behaves identically to polyversion command).

2.1.1. setuptools usage

The polyversion library function as a setuptools “plugin”, and adds two new setup() keywords for deriving subproject versions from PKG-INFO or git tags (see polyversion.init_plugin_kw()):

1. keyword: polyversion --> (bool | dict)

   When a dict, its keys roughly mimic those in polyversion(), and can be used like this:

   from setuptools import setup
   
   setup(
       project='myname',
       version=''              # omit (or None) to abort if cannot auto-version
       polyversion={           # dict or bool
           'mono_project': True, # false by default
           ...  # See `polyversion.init_plugin_kw()` for more keys.
       },
       setup_requires=[..., 'polyversion'],
       ...
   )
   

2. keyword: polyversion_check_bdist_enabled --> bool

   When it is true, the bdist-check is enabled, and any bdist_* setup-commands (e.g. bdist_wheel) will abort if not run from engraved sources (ie from an release tag).

   To enable this check without editing the sources, add the following into your $CWD/setup.cfg file:

   [global]
   polyversion_check_bdist_enabled = true
   ...
   

2.1.2. API usage

An API sample of using also polytime() from within your myproject.git/myproject/__init__.py file:

from polyversion import polyversion, polytime  # no hack, dependency already installed

__version__ = polyversion()  # project assumed equal to this module-name: 'myproject'
__updated__ = polytime()
...

Tip

Depending on your repo’s versioning scheme (eg you have a mono-project repo, with version-tags simply like vX.Y.Z), you must add in both invocations of polyversion.polyversion() above the kw-arg mono_project=True.

2.1.3. Console usage

The typical command-line usage of this library (assuming you don’t want to install the full blown polyvers command tool) is given below:

user@host:~/ $ polyversion --help
Describe the version of a *polyvers* projects from git tags.

USAGE:
    polyversion [PROJ-1] ...
    polyversion [-v | -V ]     # print my version information

user@host:~/ $ polyversion polyversion    # fails, not in a git repo
b'fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git\n'
  cmd: ['git', 'describe', '--match=cf-v*']
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/pyenv/site-packages/pvlib/polyversion/__main__.py", line 18, in main
    polyversion.run(*sys.argv[1:])
  File "/pyenv/site-packages/pvlib/polyversion/__init__.py", line 340, in run
    res = polyversion(args[0], repo_path=os.curdir)
  File "/pyenv/site-packages/pvlib/polyversion/__init__.py", line 262, in polyversion
    pvtag = _my_run(cmd, cwd=repo_path)
  File "/pyenv/site-packages/pvlib/polyversion/__init__.py", line 106, in _my_run
    raise sbp.CalledProcessError(proc.returncode, cmd)
subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['git', 'describe', '--match=cf-v*']' returned non-zero exit status 128.

user@host:~/ $ cd polyvers.git
user@host:~/polyvers.git (dev) $ polyversion polyvers polyversion
polyvers: 0.0.2a10
polyversion: 0.0.2a9

2.1.4. Standalone wheel

Various ways to use the standalone wheel from bash (these will still work without having installed anything):

user@host:~/polyvers.git (master) $
user@host:~/polyvers.git (master) $ ./bin/pvlib.run polyversion
polyversion: 0.0.2a9
user@host:~/polyvers.git (master) $ python ./bin/pvlib.run --help
...
user@host:~/polyvers.git (master) $ python ./bin/pvlib.run -m polyversion  -v
version: 0.0.2a9
user@host:~/polyvers.git (master) $ PYTHONPATH=./bin/pvlib.run  python -m polyversion  -V
version: 0.0.2a9
