Building packages with long term support

The rationale behind the creation of this 'package builder' is to keep the life of a python programmer as easy as possible by providing three core functions:
.. _Python: http://python.org
Create a virtual environment for development::
$ virtualenv dvlpt
Activate it::
$ (on windows)dvlpt\Scripts\activate
$ (on linux)dvlpt/bin/activate
Install pkglts_::
(dvlpt)$ pip install pkglts
Create a directory for your package::
(dvlpt)$ mkdir toto
Run 'manage' inside this directory::
(dvlpt)$ cd toto
(dvlpt)toto$ pmg init
(dvlpt)toto$ pmg add base
(dvlpt)toto$ pmg regenerate
This will create the bare basic minimum for a python package. Add more options (see the add_option_ for more options) afterward. Especially, since in the example above we just added the 'base' option that will create a 'src' directory to put your code in it.
.. _pkglts: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pkglts/ .. _add_option: https://pkglts.readthedocs.org/en/latest/option_list.html
More documentation can be found on readthedocs_pkglts_. If you just intend to use this package you can start with some tutorials_. However, if the core functionality are not sufficient and you want to be part of the development you might be interested with the developer_ section of the doc.
