TBD.
Installing web.session is easy, just execute the following in a terminal:
pip install web.sessionNote: We strongly recommend always using a container, virtualization, or sandboxing environment of some kind when developing using Python; installing things system-wide is yucky (for a variety of reasons) nine times out of ten. We prefer light-weight virtualenv, others prefer solutions as robust as Vagrant.
If you add web.session to the install_requires argument of the call to setup() in your application's setup.py file, this package will be automatically installed and made available when your own application or library is installed. We recommend using "less than" version numbers to ensure there are no unintentional side-effects when updating. Use web.session<2.1 to get all bugfixes for the current release, and web.session<3.0 to get bugfixes and feature updates while ensuring that large breaking changes are not installed.
Development takes place on GitHub in the web.session project. Issue tracking, documentation, and downloads are provided there. Development chat (both development of WebCore and chat for users using WebCore to develop their own solutions) is graciously provided by Freenode in the #webcore channel.
Installing the current development version requires Git, a distributed source code management system. If you have Git you can run the following to download and link the development version into your Python runtime:
git clone https://github.com/marrow/web.session.git
pip install -e web.sessionYou can then upgrade to the latest version at any time:
(cd web.session; git pull; pip install -e .)Extra dependenies can be declared the same as per web-based installation:
pip install -e 'web.session[development]'If you would like to make changes and contribute them back to the project, fork the GitHub project, make your changes, and submit a pull request. This process is beyond the scope of this documentation; for more information see GitHub's documentation.
TBD.
