| 54 | 2.6 Installing Additional Files</A> | |
| 55 | </H1> | |
| 56 | ||
| 57 | <P> | |
| 58 | The <span class="du-option">data_files</span> option can be used to specify additional | |
| 59 | files needed by the module distribution: configuration files, message | |
| 60 | catalogs, data files, anything which doesn't fit in the previous | |
| 61 | categories. | |
| 62 | ||
| 63 | <P> | |
| 64 | <span class="du-option">data_files</span> specifies a sequence of (<var>directory</var>, | |
| 65 | <var>files</var>) pairs in the following way: | |
| 66 | ||
| 67 | <P> | |
| 68 | <div class="verbatim"><pre> | |
| 69 | setup(... | |
| 70 | data_files=[('bitmaps', ['bm/b1.gif', 'bm/b2.gif']), | |
| 71 | ('config', ['cfg/data.cfg']), | |
| 72 | ('/etc/init.d', ['init-script'])] | |
| 73 | ) | |
| 74 | </pre></div> | |
| 75 | ||
| 76 | <P> | |
| 77 | Note that you can specify the directory names where the data files | |
| 78 | will be installed, but you cannot rename the data files themselves. | |
| 79 | ||
| 80 | <P> | |
| 81 | Each (<var>directory</var>, <var>files</var>) pair in the sequence specifies the | |
| 82 | installation directory and the files to install there. If | |
| 83 | <var>directory</var> is a relative path, it is interpreted relative to the | |
| 84 | installation prefix (Python's <code>sys.prefix</code> for pure-Python | |
| 85 | packages, <code>sys.exec_prefix</code> for packages that contain extension | |
| 86 | modules). Each file name in <var>files</var> is interpreted relative to | |
| 87 | the <span class="file">setup.py</span> script at the top of the package source | |
| 88 | distribution. No directory information from <var>files</var> is used to | |
| 89 | determine the final location of the installed file; only the name of | |
| 90 | the file is used. | |
| 91 | ||
| 92 | <P> | |
| 93 | You can specify the <span class="du-option">data_files</span> options as a simple sequence | |
| 94 | of files without specifying a target directory, but this is not recommended, | |
| 95 | and the <code class="du-command">install</code> command will print a warning in this case. | |
| 96 | To install data files directly in the target directory, an empty | |
| 97 | string should be given as the directory. | |
| 98 | ||
| 99 | <P> | |
