Do wheel installs from VCS/directories using ephemeral caching by pradyunsg · Pull Request #4764 · pypa/pip

pradyunsg · 2017-10-04T13:03:32Z

Closes #4501
Closes #4562
Closes #4714
Closes #536

Quoting from #4501:

Follow up from gh-4144

To allow build system abstractions, we want installation to go through wheels in more cases. In particular, installing packages from a local directory or a VCS URL currently runs 'setup.py install'. The aim of this PR is to have it build a wheel, which is stored in an ephemeral cache directory, used for installation, and then discarded.

We can't cache it permanently based on the path/URL, because the code there might change, but our cache wouldn't be invalidated.

This is implemented by reusing the current WheelCache and wrapping what is basically 2 instances of it in a wrapper that implements everything a Cache should, with an extra helper for direct access to the ephemeral directory when caching wheels.

I'm building on top of some awesome work by @takluyver, @alex and @xoviat.

When there's a previous build directory, no_clean is set

I should note that @xoviat had proposed in #4714 to make Caches into context managers, to avoid using this cleanup() pattern.

I'm still confused about how I feel about that. FWIW, we can do that in a later PR. I have some other ideas too but I'd prefer to experiment with that after this PR is done.

@rhettinger What do you think about using context managers for cleanup? You're the person that I got this from.

Just to be clear, I definitely think using a context manager is a good idea. But I agree with @pradyunsg that it's something we should defer until a followup PR. Let's get the functionality landed then address the cleanup.

I agree with that; I was just wondering what others thought in principle.

For some reason, my newer commits aren't showing up on GitHub's UI. :/

@pypa/pip-committers This PR does not depend on the current PEP 518 implementation; it's something we should probably be doing anyway.

Can we merge this?

pfmoore · 2017-11-14T08:44:01Z

+1 from me

Hello!

I am an automated bot and I have noticed that this pull request is not currently able to be merged. If you are able to either merge the master branch into this pull request or rebase this pull request against master then it will eligible for code review and hopefully merging!

pradyunsg · 2017-12-01T13:50:25Z

Okay. This should make this PR mergeable.

@pypa/pip-committers Do we want to go ahead with this, regardless of PEP 517/518?

pfmoore · 2017-12-01T13:53:31Z

+1 from me. At this point, I'm not sure if we'll need to do a pip 10 release without PEP 517/518, but I'd rather this be merged just in case we decide to.

pradyunsg · 2017-12-01T13:58:16Z

pip 10 release without PEP 517/518

@pfmoore You think it's a good idea to discuss this on #4802?

pradyunsg · 2018-01-23T20:52:11Z

@pypa/pip-committers Ping! :)

I still think this change can go in on it's own. Is there something we want to do before merging this?

Aside: When merging this PR, please use plain merge instead of squash/rebase merges since I have other branches sitting on top of this one.

pfmoore · 2018-01-23T22:08:37Z

OK, merged - hope I got the right type of merge for you.

pradyunsg · 2018-01-24T11:37:02Z

Yeps. Thanks! ^>^
