THIS REPOSITORY HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH: <https://github.com/astropy/conda-channel-astropy>_

Purpose

This builder-bot makes conda packages for astropy affiliated packages.

Design decisions

• conda_ packages will be made only for non-dev versions of affiliated packages.
• A dev version is any version whose name contains letters (this is broader than PEP 440_ but avoids the need for any intelligent parsing).
• conda_ recipes are avoided wherever possible to avoid duplicating information already in the setup.py of most affiliated packages.
• Where possible, python scripts are used to do the work to avoid separate Linux/Mac and Windows scripts.

Maintaining the bot

Update version of existing package

Open a pull request that updates the version number of the package(s) to be built. Doing so will trigger builds of the new package(s) on all platforms. Packages are automatically upload to the astropy binstar channel_.

Add a new affiliated package

1. Figure out how to build the conda_ package.
   • First try python setup.py bdist_conda.
   • If that fails, try to convince the package maintainer to update their setup.py so that this works.
   • If that fails, try conda skeleton pypi packagename to generate the initial recipe and modify as needed until conda build packagename works.
2. If python setup.py bdist_conda works you only need to open a pull request on this repo that adds the package and version to requirements.txt.
3. If the package needs a recipe to build you need to open a pull request that:
   • Adds the package information to requirements.txt
   • Adds a template recipe for the package to recipe-templates.
