Use flit for packing firefly #46

Closed anandology closed 6 years ago

anandology commented 7 years ago

flit is the upcoming Python standard for distributing python packages. You just write a simple config file with the package metadata and not have to worry about setup.py and other mess.

We can use this configuration for flit.ini:

[metadata]
module = firefly-python
author = rorodata
author-email = rorodata.team@gmail.com
home-page = https://firefly-python.readthedocs.io
description = Readme.rst
requires = gunicorn==19.7.1,
    WebOb==1.7.2,
    requests==2.18.1,
    PyYAML==3.12,
    funcsigs==1.0.2; python_version < '3'

[scripts]
firefly = firefly.app:main

The only thing I'm skeptical about is the absence of specifying version.

Also, flit documentation says description should be in rst format. So, firefly should be converted to rst format.

Flit is causing more pain. It is not possible to install a package from git if it is using flit. I would like to continue using setuptools.
