Upload to pypi #95

Open makefu opened 8 years ago

makefu commented 8 years ago

Hi,

i'd love to see spiderfoot being uploaded to pypi in order to make a stand-alone installation much easier. I am currently looking into packaging spiderfoot for nixOS and doing so is much easier if the real dependencies are clear - at least for the python part.

Just imagine how cool it would be if a new user could simply pip install --upgrade spiderfoot!

Keep up your awesome work

@smicallef how interested would you be in a series of patches that accomplish this? FWIW: the current sys.path hackery in sf.py would probably need to go.

This is currently being tracked in #1176 and is progressing... slowly. Some of the classes have been abstracted to the spiderfoot directory with the intention of shipping SpiderFoot as a package.

There is a lot to be done and a lot of ongoing architectural changes which need to be performed first.
