Description
Profile creation fails if pathlib.Path.home() / 'labscript-suite' exists.
~/labscript-suite$ labscript-profile-create
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/rpanderson/labscript-suite/.venv/bin/labscript-profile-create", line 11, in <module>
load_entry_point('labscript-utils==2.16.0.dev3', 'console_scripts', 'labscript-profile-create')()
File "/home/rpanderson/labscript-suite/.venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/labscript_profile/create.py", line 41, in create_profile
raise FileExistsError(LABSCRIPT_SUITE_PROFILE)
This proposal is to permit existence of pathlib.Path.home() / 'labscript-suite', but:
- not if any files of the same name as those in
DEFAULT_PROFILE_CONTENTSexist; or, alternatively - not if directories of the same name as those in
DEFAULT_PROFILE_CONTENTSexist.
This would permitβat leastβinstalling a virtual environment and/or a local install of the suite in pathlib.Path.home() / 'labscript-suite'.
For (1) above, the dirs_exist_ok parameter of shutil.copytree could be used, but this requires python_version >= '3.8'.
