doit is tested on python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4.

$ python setup.py install

• six
• pyinotify (linux)
• macfsevents (mac)

Tools required for development:

• git * VCS
• py.test * unit-tests
• mock * unit-tests
• coverage * code coverage
• epydoc * API doc generator
• sphinx * doc tool
• pyflakes * syntax checker
• doit-py * helper to run dev tasks

The best way to setup an environment to develop doit itself is to create a virtualenv...

doit$ virtualenv dev
(dev)doit$ dev/bin/activate

install doit as "editable", and add development dependencies from `dev_requirements.txt`:

(dev)doit$ pip install --editable .
(dev)doit$ pip install --requirement dev_requirements.txt

You can use the standalone script:

$ python runtests.py

or use py.test - http://pytest.org

$ py.test

doc folder contains ReST documentation based on Sphinx.

doc$ make html

They are the base for creating the website. The only difference is that the website includes analytics tracking. To create it (after installing doit):

$ doit website

The website will also includes epydoc generated API documentation.

On github create pull requests using a named feature branch.
