hgtools
=======

hgtools builds on the setuptools_hg plugin for setuptools. hgtools
provides classes for inspecting and working with repositories in the
Mercurial and Git version control systems (VCS).

hgtools provides a plugin for setuptools that enables setuptools to find
files managed by the VCS (currently only Mercurial support is implemented).

The classes provided by hgtools are designed to use subprocess invocation to
leverage the command-line interfaces of the VCS tools ``hg`` and ``git``. An
in-process RepoManager for Mercurial exists but has been disabled due to
issues that arise when run in certain environments (namely setuptools
sandboxing).

.. note:: The setuptools feature

  You can read about the setuptools plugin provided by hgtools in the
  `setuptools documentation`_. It basically returns a list of files that are
  under VCS when running the ``setup`` function, e.g. if
  you create a source and binary distribution. It's a simple yet effective way
  of not having to define package data (non-Python files) manually in MANIFEST
  templates (``MANIFEST.in``).

.. _setuptools documentation: http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.html#adding-support-for-other-revision-control-systems

Usage
*****

Here's a simple example of a setup.py that uses hgtools:

.. code-block:: python

    from setuptools import setup, find_packages
    setup(
        name="HelloWorld",
        version="0.1",
        packages=find_packages(),
        setup_requires=["hgtools"],
    )

If you run the setup.py above, setuptools will automatically download
hgtools to the directory where the setup.py is located at (and won't
install it anywhere else) to get all package data files from the
sourec code repository.

You should not need to, and I recommend you don't, install hgtools in
your site-packages directory. Let setuptools grab it on demand. Also,
try not to specify an upper bound for the requirement. Usually, simply
specifying 'hgtools' will get the latest version, which is likely to
remain compatible (as a plugin) for the life of the project. Specifying
an upper bound (i.e. `hgtools<1.1`) will only prevent you from getting
bug fixes. Only specify an upper bound if you require support for older
versions of Python.

Auto Version Numbering
**********************

With the 0.4 release, hgtools adds support for automatically generating
project version numbers from the repository in which the
project is developed.

To use this feature, your project must follow the following assumptions:

	 - Repo tags are used to indicate released versions.
	 - Tag names are specified as the version only (i.e. 0.1 and not
	   v0.1 or release-0.1)
	 - Released versions currently must conform to the StrictVersion in
	   distutils. Any tags that don't match this scheme will be ignored.
	   Future releases may relax this restriction.

Thereafter, you may use the RepoManager.get_current_version to
determine the version of your product. If the current revision is tagged
with a valid version, that version will be used. Otherwise, the tags in
the repo will be searched, the latest release will be found, and hgtools
will infer the upcoming release version.

For example, if the repo contains the tags 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 and the
repo is not on any of those tags, get_current_version will return
'0.3.1dev' and get_current_version(increment='0.1') will return
'0.4dev'.

A distutils hook has been created to hack setuptools to use this version
information automatically. To use this functionality, just use the
``use_vcs_version`` parameter to setup.
For example:

.. code-block:: python

    from setuptools import setup, find_packages
    setup(
        name="HelloWorld",
        use_vcs_version=True,
        packages=find_packages(),
        setup_requires=["hgtools"],
    )

If the value supplied to use_vcs_version resolves to True, hgtools will
use the tagged version to determine the version of the
package (based on get_current_version). If an sdist is created, hgtools
will store the calculated version in the tag_build of the setup.cfg and
will use that version when deploying remotely. Therefore, if you are
using auto-versioning, you should not use setuptools tags explicitly.

See the jaraco.util setup.py for an example of this technique.

Versioning Parameters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's also possible to pass keyword parameters to use_vcs_version to
tweak how it generates version numbers. To pass parameters, instead of
setting `use_vcs_version = True`, set it to a non-empty dictionary with
one or more of the following parameters:

 - `increment`:
   A string indicating the default version increment for the project.
   By default, this value is '0.1', meaning hgtools will use the version
   '1.1dev' for builds following the 1.0 release and '1.10dev' for builds
   following a 1.9.3 release. Set this value to '1.0' or '0.0.1' for the
   current tree to help hgtools guess the target version.

 - `version_handler`:
   A Python function with the following signature:

   .. code-block:: python

       def calc_version(mgr, options):
           return str('1.0')

   hgtools will use this function instead of its default implementation
   to customize the version number calculation. The `mgr` object is the
   `hgtools.managers.base.RepoManager` object referencing the local repo
   and the `options` is the dictionary passed to use_vcs_version.

   Use this option, for example, to include the commit hash or local
   revision ID in the version:

   .. code-block:: python

       def id_as_version(mgr, options):
           "Always return the Mercurial revision ID as the version"
           id_n = mgr._invoke(['id', '-n']).strip()
           return id_n

       setup(
           #...
           use_vcs_version={'version_handler': id_as_version},
       )

   The first thing to note is the mgr does not yet provide a nice
   interface for getting anything but the tags for a revision, so the
   example digs into the underlying API to extract the ID. hgtools should
   provide better support in the HGRepoManager classes in future releases.

   Use this feature with caution. If you have not already read the
   `setuptools documentation on specifying a project version
   <http://packages.python.org/distribute/setuptools.html#specifying-your-project-s-version>`_,
   the author recommends you do read that.

Changes
*******

6.3
~~~

* Updated 'dev' revision to be compatible with setuptools 8 canonical
  pre-release version numbering (now '.dev0').

6.2.1
~~~~~

* Pull Request #7: Fixed intermittent test failures.

6.2
~~~

* Issue #28: Fixed poor parsing of git version. Also provide a nicer error
  message when no repo manager is found.
* Added support for querying the Mercurial version in cmd.Mercurial.

6.1
~~~

* Issue #21: GitManager is now only valid if Git 1.7.10 or later is present.

6.0
~~~

* Issue #23: hgtools no longer imports Mercurial and thus does not link to
  it. Applications that wish to use the in-process Mercurial manager must
  first `import mercurial.dispatch` in their application.
* Issue #23: hgtools is now licensed under the MIT license.

5.3
~~~

* Issue #19: Add file finder support for git. Credit to Berry Phillips.

5.2
~~~

* Issue #20: Added support for listing all git tags. Credit to Berry Phillips.

5.1
~~~

* In version inference, always fallback to increment (or None) when an
  Exception occurs in the calculation.

5.0.1
~~~~~

* Issue #17: Fix regression on older versions of setuptools where unspecified
  distribution attributes would cause use_vcs_version of None to supersede
  a supplied use_hg_version.

5.0
~~~

* Added new ``use_vcs_version`` distutils parameter to supersede
  ``use_hg_version``. Clients should update to use this new parameter as soon
  as hgtools 5.0 is generally available.
* Initial git support. The tool now nominally supports eliciting the project
  version from a git tag. Many of the hg features are not yet implemented,
  such as auto-incrementing versions when the current revision is not on a
  tag and file discovery from repo metadata.
  This new Git support provides experimental support for dual-hosted
  repositories (such as those found on Kiln). Since file discovery is not yet
  tested or implemented, there are likely to be yet undiscovered issues.
* Refactored the Manager models to better support the two repositories.
  Clients that use hgtools to programmatically manipulate repositories will
  need to update to use the new names. In particular, HGRepoManager was
  renamed to RepoManager. SubprocessManager renamed to MercurialManager and
  a new GitManager was created. The LibraryManager was renamed to
  MercurialInProcManager.

4.0
~~~

* Removed functions in hgtools (package) module deprecated since 0.6.6.

3.0.2
~~~~~

* Restored Python 2.6 compatibility in reentry module.

3.0.1
~~~~~

* Merged changes from 2.2.2 to address #13.

3.0
~~~

* Removed support for Python 2.5. Python 2.6 or later is now required.

2.2.3
~~~~~

* Restored Python 2.5 compatibility in some modules.

2.2.2
~~~~~

* Removed the LibraryManager from the default imports. This means it will not
  be available unless the client application specifically imports
  `hgtools.managers.library`. This change appears to fix #13.

2.2.1
~~~~~

* Added some exception handling and tests around Library Manager in the hopes
  of preventing #13.

2.2
~~~

* LibraryManager has been re-written to use the command-line API in-process.
  The new LibraryManager now only works Python 2.7 and greater, but also now
  shares the same capability as the SubprocessManager with full tags support.

2.1
~~~

* hgtools now builds natively on Python 3, rather than requiring a 2to3
  conversion at install time.

2.0.3
~~~~~

 * Issue #12: Suppress exceptions besides ImportError when importing
   Mercurial modules.

2.0.2
~~~~~

* Force `hg log` and `hg parents` to use the defaults style for output.
  Otherwise, the parsing code fails to identify the tags. Also, reset the
  'default.log' value in case a user has an alias for `hg log` in his .hgrc.
  (For example, some use log=-G to force the graph output). Thanks to
  `dc <https://bitbucket.org/dc>`_ for the patch.

2.0.1
~~~~~

* Fixed issue #10 where hgtools would not parse setup.cfg properly if
  the Python 3 configparser backport was installed on Python 2.

2.0
~~~

* Refactored HGRepoManager to better support multiple tags:

  - `.get_tag` replaced by `.get_tags`, which returns a set of tags
    for a specific revision. This is currently a set because mercurial
    does not retain any meaningful order of the tags.
  - `.get_tags` replaced by `.get_repo_tags`.
  - `.get_parent_tag` replaced by `.get_parent_tags`.
  - added `.get_parents` which returns the revision(s) of the specified
    revision.

* Removed support for older versions of mercurial (LegacyLibraryManager).
* The subprocess manager is now the default. The HGTOOLS_FORCE_CMD variable
  no longer has any effect on hgtools.
* Version detection now resolves multiple tags on the same revision by
  choosing the greatest version.

1.2.1
~~~~~

* Fix issue #9 - The repo managers and thus the setuptools plugin will no
  longer find files that aren't in the location specified. The
  LibraryManagers already will throw an error in this case, but now the
  SubprocessManager does what's best and only returns files relative
  to the location.

1.2
~~~

* Implemented the `version_handler` version parameter. Fixes #5.
* If multiple tags are given for a revision, the last tag is used instead
  of the first.

1.1.6
~~~~~

* More aggressively construct a the environment when running `hg` in a
  subprocess. Fixes another manifestation of #7. Thanks whit537.

1.1.5
~~~~~

* Fix issue #8 - Re-wrote SubprocessManager.get_tag to extract the tag using
  `hg tags` for more reliable tag resolution.

1.1.3
~~~~~

* Fix issue #7 - SubprocessManager now passes explicit environment to child
  process.

1.1.2
~~~~~

* Restored Python 2.5 compatibility.

1.1
~~~

* Added support for subrepos. The setuptools plugin will now traverse
  subrepos when finding files.

1.0.1
~~~~~

* Fix issue #6 where the force_hg_version flag was affecting installation
  of tagged packages not employing hgtools.

1.0
~~~

* Python 3 support
* Now supports revisions with multiple tags (chooses the first, which
  appears to be the latest).
* Removed support for deprecated use_hg_version_increment.
* Added HGRepoManager.existing_only to filter managers for only those
  which refer to an existing repo.
* Employed HGRepoManager.existing_only in plugins. Fixes #2.
* SubprocessManager no longer writes to /dev/null. Fixes #3.

0.6.7
~~~~~

* Auto-versioning will no longer use the parent tag if the working
  copy has modifications.

0.6.6
~~~~~

* Some minor refactoring - moved functions out of top-level `hgtools`
  module into hgtools.plugins.

0.6.5
~~~~~
 * Test case and fix for error in SubprocessManager when 'hg'
   executable doesn't exist.

0.6.4
~~~~~
 * Fix for NameError created in 0.6.3.

0.6.3
~~~~~
 * Deprecated use_hg_version_increment setup parameter in favor of
   parameters to use_hg_version.

0.6.2
~~~~~
 * From drakonen: hgtools will now utilize the parent changeset tag
   for repositories that were just tagged (no need to update to that
   tag to release).

0.6.1
~~~~~
 * Fixed issue #4: Tag-based autoversioning fails if hgrc defaults
   used for hg identify

0.6
~~~
 * Refactored modules. Created ``managers``, ``versioning``, and
   ``py25compat`` modules.

0.5.2
~~~~~
 * Yet another fix for #1. It appears that simply not activating the
   function is not sufficient. It may be activated by previously-
   installed packages, so it needs to be robust for non-hgtools
   packages.

0.5.1
~~~~~
 * Fix for issue #1 - version_calc_plugin is activated for projects that
   never called for it.
 * LibraryManagers no longer raise errors during the import step
   (instead, they just report as being invalid).
 * SubprocessManager now raises a RuntimeError if the executed command
   does not complete with a success code.

0.5
~~~
 * Fixed issue in file_finder_plugin where searching for an
   appropriate manager would fail if mercurial was not installed in
   the Python instance (ImportErrors weren't trapped properly).

0.4.9
~~~~~
 * Fixed issue where version calculation would fail if tags contained
   spaces.

0.4.8
~~~~~
 * Auto versioning now provides a reasonable default when no version
   tags are yet present.

0.4.3-0.4.7
~~~~~~~~~~~
 * Fixes for versions handling of hgtools itself.

0.4.2
~~~~~
 * Fixed formatting errors in documentation.

0.4.1
~~~~~

 * Reformatted package layout so that other modules can be included.
 * Restored missing namedtuple_backport (provides Python 2.5 support).

0.4
~~~

 * First release supporting automatic versioning using mercurial tags.
