Building an egg of my python project

egg, python, scrapyd

Solution

assuming scrapy daemon run on localhost, it should be as simple as:

cd /root/of/scrapy/project/where/scrapy.cfg/is
scrapy deploy

otherwise, insert another entry in scrapy.cfg file, for example:

[deploy:scrapyd2]
url = http://scrapyd.mydomain.com/api/scrapyd/
username = john
password = secret

for more info see scrapyd documentation

Problem

Can somebody please guide me with step-by-step procedure on how to eggfy my existing python project? The documentation is keep mentioning something about setup.py within a package but I cannot find it in my project... thank you,
