Make available via the Python Package Index (PyPi)

[golharam]

Adding this PyPi would make installing this easier from another package's setup.py in the install_requires section.

I don’t understand.

Hello @golharam - thanks for the suggestion. I'm currently in the process of refactoring a lot of the Python code with the goal of supporting Python 3 (whilst trying to maintain compatibility with Python 2, in the short term). Once this is done I'll look at making this package available on PyPI as you suggest.

Thinking ahead I'm also considering some reorganisation of the code in the bcftbx library (issue #33) and the removal of some of the non-Python utilities (e.g. the Perl and R scripts), which aren't really appropriate for PyPI. Do you use any of these components directly? Please let me know if these changes would have any impact for you.

I'll post updates to this thread as I make progress towards this.

Hello @avifriedlich - my understanding is that @golharam would like the package to be made available via the Python Package Index (PyPI):

https://pypi.org/

which would make it easier to install via pip, and to include in other Python packages.

I use bcftbx.IlluminaData.SampleSheet mostly.

Thanks @golharam.
