A tool for packaging a set of files for distribution using a YAML manifest definition from the
`packageManifest project <https://gitlab.com/blueskyjunkie/package-manifest>`_.

Main Features
=============

* Simple default operation
* zip or tar-gzip package generation (or both)
* Specify project path to build package from
* Append manifest files to an existing tar or zip package


Installation
============

The simplest way to acquire ``distributionPackage`` is using ``pip``.

.. code-block:: bash

   pip install distributionPackage

It's highly recommended that you install the package into a
`Python virtual environment <http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/>`_.


Getting Started
===============

Define a package manifest in a YAML file. The default name expected by ``distributionPackage`` is ``manifest.yml``. The example
below constructs a simple manifest for a hypothetical C++ project.

.. code-block:: yaml

   - include:
       files: [ 'README.md', 'LICENSE', 'VERSION' ]
   - global-include:
       files: [ '*.h', '*.cpp' ]
   - prune:
       directory: 'scripts'

Assuming that you have installed ``distributionPackage`` and that the ``makePackage`` command is in your path,

.. code-block:: bash

   makePackage

By default ``makePackage`` will acquire the manifest definitions from ``./manifest.yml``, output a file
``distribution-out.tar.gz`` in the current directory and assume that the current directory is the root directory of the
project to be packaged (for the basis of constructing the package file names from the manifest).

Multiple manifest files may also be specified using the ``--manifests`` argument. The YAML data from the files are concatenated in the same
order as the file names into a single manifest.

Using the ``--help`` option will describe the various options available.

.. code-block:: bash

   > makePackage --help

   usage: makePackage [-h] [-a] [-m [MANIFEST_PATH [MANIFEST_PATH ...]]]
                      [-o OUTPUT] [-p PACKAGE] [-r PROJECTROOT] [-n] [-z]

   Build a distribution package from a manifest

   optional arguments:
     -h, --help            show this help message and exit
     -a, --append          Append to an existing distribution package, if it
                           exists. Created otherwise. (default disabled)
     -m [MANIFEST_PATH [MANIFEST_PATH ...]], --manifests [MANIFEST_PATH [MANIFEST_PATH ...]]
                           Manifest file(s) to use to build the package. (default
                           manifest.yml)
     -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                           Directory to place the generated distribution files.
                           Created if not present. (default ./)
     -p PACKAGE, --package PACKAGE
                           Filename stub of output package, not including suffix
                           or version info. (default distribution-out)
     -r PROJECTROOT, --project-root PROJECTROOT
                           Project root to package files from. (default ./)
     -n, --no-tar          Disable tar, gzip output distribution. (default
                           enabled)
     -z, --zip             Enable zip output distribution. (default disabled)
