## Notes about python dependencies
* This extension is targeted at production databases. Therefore certain restrictions must be assumed about the production environment vs other experimental environments.
* We're using `pip` and `virtualenv` to generate a suitable isolated environment for python code that has all the dependencies
* Every dependency should be:
- Added to the `setup.py` file
- Installed through it
- Tested, when they have a test suite.
- Fixed in the `requirements.txt`
* At present we use Python version 2.7.3

### Sample session with virtualenv
#### Create and use a virtual env
# Create the virtual environment for python
$ virtualenv myenv
# Activate the virtualenv
$ source myenv/bin/activate
# Install all the requirements
# expect this to take a while, as it will trigger a few compilations
(myenv) $ pip install -r requirements.txt
# Add a new pip to the party
(myenv) $ pip install pandas
#### Test the libraries with that virtual env
##### Test numpy library dependency:
import numpy
numpy.test('full')
output:
```

NOTE: this is expected to fail with Python 2.7.3, which is the version embedded in our postgresql installation
##### Run scipy tests
import scipy
scipy.test('full')
Output:

```
Ok, this looks good...
##### Testing pysal
See [http://pysal.readthedocs.org/en/latest/developers/testing.html]
import pysal
import nose
nose.runmodule('pysal')
```
Ran 537 tests in 42.182s
FAILED (errors=48, failures=17)
An exception has occurred, use %tb to see the full traceback.
```
This doesn't look good... Taking a deeper look at the failures, many have the `IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'streets.shp'`
In the source code, there's the following [config](https://github.com/pysal/pysal/blob/master/setup.cfg) that seems to be missing in the pip package. By copying it to `lib/python2.7/site-packages` within the environment, it goes down to 17 failures.
The remaining failures don't look good. I see two types: precision calculation errors and arrays/matrices missing 1 element when comparing... TODO: FIX this
