NAME¶

fastep - Adjust python project to use fastentrypoints

SYNOPSIS¶

fastep [dir1] [dir2] [...]

DESCRIPTION¶

fastep will make sure fastentrypoints is included in MANIFEST.in and present in setup.py.

Using entry_points in your setup.py makes scripts that start really slowly because it imports pkg_resources, which is a horrible thing to do if you want your trivial script to execute more or less instantly.

fastentrypoints make entry_points specified in setup.py load more quickly.
