I am trying to create a setup.py for an existing project. The project has a directory structure that I cannot change. I need my setup.py to be in the same folder as my project source files.
Sample 1, directory structure.
MyModule
├── __init__.py
├── MyApp.ini
├── MyApp.py
├── setup.py
└── foo.py
This is my stetup.py
from setuptools import setup, find_packages
packages = find_packages(exclude=['ez_setup', 'tests', 'tests.*'])
console_script = list()
console_script.append('MyApp = MyApp:main')
py_modules = list()
py_modules.append('MyApp')
other_files = list()
other_files.append('MyApp.ini')
module_name = "MyModule"
mysetup = setup(name=module_name,
py_modules=py_modules,
version="1.0.0",
packages=packages,
package_dir={module_name: module_name},
package_data={module_name: other_files},
include_package_data=True,
entry_points={'console_scripts': console_script, },
zip_safe=False,
python_requires='>=2.7,<=3.0',
)
After installing MyModule via 'python setup install'. I cannot import from MyModule. 'from MyModule import MyApp' does not work. I can import directly. 'import MyApp' works. The problems is 'import foo' works as well. I have multiple projects with different foo.py.
Sample 2:
If I could change the directory structure as shown below. The install works correctly.
MyModule
├── MyModule
│ ├── foo.py
│ ├── __init__.py
│ ├── MyApp.ini
│ └── MyApp.py
└── setup.py
Is there a way to get sample 1, to install the way sample 2 does?
