Miscellaneous Tasks
These are some other tasks that are located in the paver.misctasks module.
Miscellaneous tasks that don’t fit into one of the other groupings.
-
paver.misctasks.generate_setup()
- Generates a setup.py file that uses paver behind the scenes. This
setup.py file will look in the directory that the user is running it
in for a paver-minilib.zip and will add that to sys.path if available.
Otherwise, it will just assume that paver is available.
-
paver.misctasks.help()
- Displays the list of commands and the details.
-
paver.misctasks.minilib()
Create a Paver mini library that contains enough for a simple
pavement.py to be installed using a generated setup.py. This
is a good temporary measure until more people have deployed paver.
The output file is ‘paver-minilib.zip’ in the current directory.
Options:
- extra_files
- list of other paver modules to include (don’t include the .py
extension)
-
paver.misctasks.paverdocs()
- Open your web browser and display Paver’s documentation.
