pylint is having a hard time with distutils.version in tox's virtual envs. virtualenv uses some tricks to provide a virtual distutils package, pylint can't cope with. https://github.com/PyCQA/pylint/issues/73 suggests to use pkg_resources instead. pkg_resources' version parser has some more benefits, e.g. PEP 440 conformity. But pkg_resources.parse_version() is a heavy weight solution with reduced functionality, e.g. no access to major version. For API_VERSION and plugin version we can use a much simpler and faster approach. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/6468 Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <cheimes@redhat.com> Reviewed-By: Martin Basti <mbasti@redhat.com> Reviewed-By: Martin Babinsky <mbabinsk@redhat.com>
This is a set of libraries common to IPA clients and servers though mostly
geared currently towards command-line tools.
A brief overview:
config.py - identify the IPA server domain and realm. It uses python-dns to
try to detect this information first and will fall back to
/etc/ipa/default.conf if that fails.
ipautil.py - helper functions
entity.py - entity is the main data type. User and Group extend this class
(but don't add anything currently).
ipavalidate.py - basic data validation routines
