Hello! Hopefully suds-community will be useful. If I'm understanding correctly a separate repo would be created, for example, similar to https://github.com/conda-forge/suds-jurko-feedstock. Does that have to be the maintainer of the upstream repo?
I unfortunately don't have time to maintain a downstream project currently, but it be great if you'd like to take this on.
Right, a separate repo is needed, based on a fork of https://github.com/conda-forge/staged-recipes. The maintainer of that repo doesn't have to be the same as the maintainer of the upstream repo (suds-community/suds
), though that would be ideal.
But I understand the concern about the time commitment. So, for now, I offer to take it on. I've gone ahead and created the repo, https://github.com/ulmo-dev/staged-recipes, and edited the necessary meta.yaml recipe. This was generated from the latest package on pypi.
If it's ok with you, I'm ready to move forward. The next step is submitting a PR to conda-forge. After that, I believe the next steps are largely automatic, unless problems come up. I can keep you posted.
@phillbaker I've gone ahead and submitted a conda-forge PR to get the process started for creating a conda package.
The conda package is now available:
https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/suds-community
To install: conda install -c conda-forge suds-community
. I'll try it soon. I'm eager to replace suds-jurko as a dependency in a package I maintain.
Thanks! Looks great.
I'll go ahead and close this out.
I was very glad to discover
suds-community
, after usingsuds-jurko
(andsuds
before that) for a few years and realizing that it's no longer maintained.There's been a suds-jurko conda package on conda-forge for a long time, and it'd be great to have a
suds-community
package there as well. I can offer to help with this.It's fairly easy to do this. See the Getting started section of the
conda-forge/staged-recipes
README file, possibly supplemented by the Step-by-step Instructions here. To generate the content of the conda recipemeta.yml
file, I recommend the Grayskull online tool, which only needs the name of the pip package (it runs successfully withsuds-community
); you then only need to edit it by replacingADD_YOUR_GITHUB_ID_HERE
with the maintainer's github handle.
