Example for executable script is missing

[guettli]

Hi, I am missing an example how to package an executable script.

Imagine you have mygrep.py the world best grep replacement.

How to structure the files and directories?

AFAIK the script (here mygrep.py) is almost empty. It just imports from the library and calls its main() method.

A simple example inside this sampleproject would be nice.

The recommendation is that you shouldn't use executable scripts, you should use entry points - which are covered. So the omission is deliberate.

I am sorry. I was blind. There is an example for 'console_scripts':

# setup.py

    # To provide executable scripts, use entry points in preference to the
    # "scripts" keyword. Entry points provide cross-platform support and allow
    # pip to create the appropriate form of executable for the target platform.
    entry_points={
        'console_scripts': [
            'sample=sample:main',
        ],
    },
