pbr ("Python Build Reasonableness") is a library for managing setuptools
|
|
packaging needs in a consistent manner.
|
|
|
|
pbr reads and then filters the setup.cfg data through a setup hook to
|
|
fill in default values and provide more sensible behaviors, and then
|
|
feeds the results in as the arguments to a call to setup.py - so the
|
|
heavy lifting of handling Python packaging needs is still being done by
|
|
setuptools.
|
|
|
|
pbr can and does do a bunch of things for you:
|
|
|
|
- Version: Manage version number based on git revisions and tags
