[pylucene-dev] Re: how to build a PyLucene egg?

[Kapil Thangavelu]

I created the egg, by hand. To reproduce after running make..

$ cd build
$ cp _lucene/_lucene.so lucene

i hand rolled a simple setup.py in the build directory..

# setup.py text
from setuptools import setup

setup(
   name = 'lucene',
   version = '2.3.1',
   description = ' a Python <http://www.python.org/> extension for accessing
Java Lucene <http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/index.html>.',
   url = "http://pylucene.osafoundation.org",
   author = 'Andi Vajda',
   author_email = 'vajda at osafoundation.org',
   packages = ['lucene'],
   package_dir = {'lucene': 'lucene'},
   package_data = {'lucene': ['*.jar', '*.so'] },
   )
#

and then setup.py bdist_egg will finish the process.

fwiw, i also updated the leopard egg, to the latest pylucene trunk,
http://kapil.objectrealms.net/dist

cheers,
