Travis special requirements for each python version
Travis CI adds an environment variable called $TRAVIS_PYTHON_VERSION that can be referenced in your .travis.yml:
python: - 2.6 - 2.7 - 3.2 - 3.3 - pypyinstall: - if [[ $TRAVIS_PYTHON_VERSION == 2.6 ]]; then pip install importlib unittest2; fi - pip install -r requirements.txtThis would cause unittest2 and importlib to be installed only for Python 2.6, with requirements.txt being installed for all versions listed. You can do as many of these checks as necessary. Tornado's .travis.yml file uses it quite a bit.
The proper way to define conditional requirements is:
# requirements.txtordereddict; python_version == '2.6'Yep, comments can be used to specify conditional requirements. If you get some errors you may be using an outdated version of pip.
