Google Application Utilities for Python
=======================================
This project is a small collection of utilities for building Python
applications. It includes some of the same set of utilities used to build and
run internal Python apps at Google.
Features:
* Simple application startup integrated with python-gflags.
* Subcommands for command-line applications.
* Option to drop into pdb on uncaught exceptions.
* Helper functions for dealing with files.
* High-level profiling tools.
* Timezone-aware wrappers for datetime.datetime classes.
* Improved TestCase with the same methods as unittest2, plus helpful flags for
test startup.
* google_test setuptools command for running tests.
* Helper module for creating application stubs.
Installation
============
To install the package, simply run:
python setup.py install
Google-Style Tests
==================
Google-style tests (those run with basetest.main()) differ from setuptools-style
tests in that test modules are designed to be run as __main__. Setting up your
project to use Google-style tests is easy:
1. Create one or more test modules named '*_test.py' in a directory. Each test
module should have a main block that runs basetest.main():
# In tests/my_test.py
from google.apputils import basetest
class MyTest(basetest.TestCase):
def testSomething(self):
self.assertTrue('my test')
if __name__ == '__main__':
basetest.main()
2. Add a setup requirement on google-apputils and set the test_dir option:
# In setup.py
setup(
...
setup_requires = ['google-apputils>=0.2'],
test_dir = 'tests',
)
3. Run your tests:
python setup.py google_test
Google-Style Stub Scripts
=========================
Google-style binaries (run with app.run()) are intended to be executed directly
at the top level, so you should not use a setuptools console_script entry point
to point at your main(). You can use distutils-style scripts if you want.
Another alternative is to use google.apputils.run_script_module, which is a
handy wrapper to execute a module directly as if it were a script:
1. Create a module like 'stubs.py' in your project:
# In my/stubs.py
from google.apputils import run_script_module
def RunMyScript():
import my.script
run_script_module.RunScriptModule(my.script)
def RunMyOtherScript():
import my.other_script
run_script_module.RunScriptModule(my.other_script)
2. Set up entry points in setup.py that point to the functions in your stubs
module:
# In setup.py
setup(
...
entry_points = {
'console_scripts': [
'my_script = my.stubs:RunMyScript',
'my_other_script = my.stubs.RunMyOtherScript',
],
},
)
There are also useful flags you can pass to your scripts to help you debug your
binaries; run your binary with --helpstub to see the full list.
