Creating a new Pack
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You'll need to have `Python 3.8 <https://www.pyth1on.org/downloads/release/python-382/>`_ and `poetry <https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry>`_
|
|
to develop Royalnet Packs.
|
|
|
|
Creating the repository
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To create a new pack, create a new repository based on the `Royalnet Pack template <https://github.com/Steffo99/royalnet-pack-template>`_
|
|
and clone it to your workspace.
|
|
|
|
After cloning the template, run ``poetry install`` to create a virtualenv and install the dependencies for the pack in it.
|
|
|
|
pyproject.toml
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The ``pyproject.toml`` file contains information about your Python project that will be read by ``poetry`` while building
|
|
the pack and publishing it to PyPI.
|
|
|
|
Choose a name for your Pack and set it in the ``tool.property.name`` field: ::
|
|
|
|
[tool.poetry]
|
|
# TODO: Insert here your Pack name!
|
|
name = "pastapack"
|
|
# ...
|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions in the other ``# TODO`` comments to finish editing the file.
|
|
|
|
examplepack
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The ``examplepack`` folder contains the source code of your pack, and should be renamed to the name you set in the ``pyproject.toml`` file.
|
|
|
|
It should contain six folders: ::
|
|
|
|
examplepack
|
|
├── commands
|
|
├── events
|
|
├── stars
|
|
├── tables
|
|
├── types
|
|
└── utils
|
|
|
|
The commands folder
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The commands folder should contain all commands that your Pack will add to the Royalnet instances it is installed in.
|
|
|
|
To learn how to create a new :class:`~commands.Command`, read the :doc:`command` page.
|
|
|
|
The events folder
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The events folder should contain all events (remote procedure calls) that your Pack will add to the Royalnet instances it is installed in.
|
|
|
|
To learn how to create a new :class:`~commands.Event`, read the :doc:`event` page.
|
|
|
|
The stars folder
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The stars folder should contain all stars (webserver routes) that your Pack will add to the Royalnet instances it is installed in.
|
|
|
|
To learn how to create a new :class:`~constellation.PageStar`, read the :doc:`star` page.
|
|
|
|
The tables folder
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The tables folder should contain all Alchemy tables (SQLAlchemy-compatible SQL tables) that your Pack will add to the Royalnet instances it is installed in.
|
|
|
|
To learn how to create a new table, read the :doc:`table` page.
|
|
|
|
The utils folder
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The utils folder should contain the utility functions and classes that your Pack uses.
|
|
|
|
Its contents are imported **before** the commands, events and stars but **after** the tables, so **you can't import them** in the files contained in the ``tables`` folder, or you will create a `circular import <https://stackabuse.com/python-circular-imports/>`_!
|
|
|
|
Files in this folder are **forbidden from importing modules** from the ``commands``, ``events`` and ``stars`` folders, as that will create a circular import too.
|
|
|
|
The types folder
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The types folder should contain the enums and custom types that are used in your tables.
|
|
|
|
Please note that the contents of this folder are imported **before** everything else in the pack.
|
|
|
|
Its contents **can be imported anywhere** in the Pack, including the ``tables`` folder, without creating a circular import.
|
|
|
|
However, its files are **forbidden from importing anything else** from the rest of the pack!
|
|
|
|
Adding new dependencies to the Pack
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
As the Pack is actually a Python package, you can use ``poetry`` to add new dependencies!
|
|
|
|
Use ``poetry add packagename`` to add and install a new dependency from the PyPI.
|
|
|
|
Updating the dependencies
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can update all your dependencies by using: ``poetry update``.
|
|
|
|
The README.md file
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The README.md file is the first thing that users of your pack will see!
|
|
|
|
It's recommended to describe accurately how to install and configure the pack, so other users will be able to use it too!
|
|
|
|
Publishing the pack
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To publish your Pack on the PyPI, run ``poetry publish --build``.
|
|
|
|
Poetry will build your Pack and upload it to the PyPI for you!
