development setup
The best way to setup an environment to develop doit itself is to create a virtualenv...
doit$ virtualenv dev (dev)doit$ dev/bin/activate
install doit
as "editable", and add development dependencies
from dev_requirements.txt:
(dev)doit$ pip install --editable . (dev)doit$ pip install --requirement dev_requirements.txt
tests
Use py.test - http://pytest.org
$ py.test
documentation
doc
folder contains ReST documentation based on Sphinx.
doc$ make html
They are the base for creating the website. The only difference is that the website includes analytics tracking. To create it (after installing doit):
$ doit website
The website will also includes epydoc generated API documentation.
spell checking
All documentation is spell checked using the task spell:
$ doit spell
It is a bit annoying that code snippets and names always fails the check, these words must be added into the file doc/dictionary.txt.
The spell checker currently uses hunspell, to install it on debian based systems install the hunspell package: apt-get install hunspell.

python -m cProfile -o output.pstats `which doit` list gprof2dot -f pstats output.pstats | dot -Tpng -o output.png
