Finer error handling

[rjarry]

Hello mate,

I hope summer was good :-)

I'm putting my head back in the code and I though that finer error handling would be cool for your lib.

Also I added a basic setup.py file so you can publish the module in pypi and allow people to get it with easy_install (and also put it as a dependency in their projects). If you're not convinced this is a good idea, I'd like to discuss this with you :)

Not a bad idea :). I'm not going to keep the same names for those errors though.

I'll prolly go with these:
RequestError (having "bad" in there would be redundant)
AuthenticationError (since the reason isn't always a bad apikey)
ServerError (just seems a bit more "pro")

[rjarry]

Yup your names do sound better. ^^

How about the setup.py script and this whole pypi stuff ?

[ntt]

suppose it can't hurt. I'll have a looksie later.

Ok tell me if you need some help on this. Pypi is kind of weird, it took me a while to get a grip on it.

If you want to be able to register & upload packages from the command line without all the fuzz on their website (which I recommend). You will need to add a ~/.pypirc file with this content

[pypi]
username=<username>
password=<password>

Then when you have a new version of your package, do this :

./setup.py clean sdist register upload

And you're done :)

some person ninja'd the evapi name on pypi though so ill have to poke him/her first to remove it >.<

[rjarry]

Yes I saw that yesterday :x I hope the guy is not dead nor willing to keep it.

You can always change the package name to ntt-eveapi (it doesn't have to be the same as the python module name)

I'm picky when it comes to names ;-)

[rjarry]

heheh i've noticed that :D

[ntt]

ok, it's up. The other person removed it right away when I asked :)

Weeeeeee \o/
