fades 6 released

Show key headers only | View raw

Hello all,

We're glad to announce the release of fades 6.

fades is a system that automatically handles the virtualenvs in the
cases normally found when writing scripts and simple programs, and
even helps to administer big projects.

It will automagically create a new virtualenv (or reuse a previous
created one), installing the necessary dependencies, and execute
your script inside that virtualenv.

You only need to execute the script with fades (instead of Python) and
also mark the required dependencies. More details here:

    http://fades.rtfd.org/


What's new in this release?

- Install not only from PyPI but also from remote code repositories
  (GitHub, Bitbucket, Launchpad, etc) and local directories

    fades -d git+https://github.com/yandex/gixy.git@v0.1.3

    fades -d file://$PATH_TO_PROJECT

- Created a video to showcase the most relevant fades features

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCTd_TyCm98

- Select the best virtualenv from the stored ones in the case of multiple
  matching

- Added a --clean-unused-venvs option to remove all virtualenvs not
  used in the last indicated days

    fades --clean-unused-venvs=30

- Added a --pip-options to pass any needed parameters to the
  underlying pip call

    fades -d requests --pip-options="--no-cache-dir"

- Properly return a code != 0 if fades process failed in any way

- Now the virtualenv /bin path is added to the child PATH before execution

- Remove the just created virtualenv if its setup failed somehow (not
  leaving unused/untracked directories)

- Issue a WARNING if fades is executed from a virtualenv (it shouldn't)

- Better behaviour when CTRL-C is sent to an interactive interpreter
  running under fades

- Support missing virtualenv directories: if a virtualenv was found in
  the cache check if it is valid, otherwise re-create it

- Added infrastructure for fades to be packaged and run as a Snap

    snap install fades

- Better multiplatformy locking to exclude two simultaneous fades runs
  messing with internal files

- Instructions to install using 'brew'

- Alert the user that the one doing background stuff is fades

- Better README and documentation in general

- Improved version description to be more standards compliant

- Other minor improvements and bug fixes


Nicolás and I want to say a big thank you to the following collaborators
that helped to improve and enhance fades in different ways for this
version (in alphabetical order):

    Ariel Rossanigo
    David Litvak Bruno
    FaQ
    Filipe Ximenes

    Juan Carizza
    Lucio Torre
    Manuel Kaufmann

To install and enjoy fades...

- If you are in Ubuntu or Debian, you can easily install like this
  (but probably won't get *latest* fades:

    sudo apt-get install fades

- For not latest debian/ubuntu you have a .deb here (with checksum
  and signature):

    http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.deb
    http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.deb.sha1
    http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.deb.asc

- Install it in Arch is very simple:

    yaourt -S fades

- In any Linux if you have the Snap system:

    snap install fades

- Using pip if you want:

    pip3 install fades

- You can always get the multiplatform tarball and install it in the
  old fashion way:

    wget http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.tar.gz
    tar -xf fades-latest.tar.gz
    cd fades-*
    sudo ./setup.py install

  Also have the checksum and signature, if interested:

    http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.tar.gz.sha1
    http://taniquetil.com.ar/fades/fades-latest.tar.gz.asc


Help / questions:

- You can ask any question or send any recommendation or request
  to the mailing list...

    http://listas.python.org.ar/mailman/listinfo/fades

  ... or in the #fades IRC channel (in Freenode).

- Also, you can open an issue here (please do if you find any problem!).

    https://github.com/PyAr/fades/issues/new

- The project itself is in

    https://github.com/PyAr/fades

  It's very easy to run latest development version:

    git clone https://github.com/PyAr/fades.git
    cd fades
    bin/fades


Thanks in advance for your time!
