Command Line Options

The pymixup.py program can be run from the command line. For example, to obfuscate the project specified in common/settings.py, enter:

$ python pymixup.py

However, fabric files have been setup to automate a lot of the file copying. It’s more convenient to use the fabric tasks than running pymixup.py from the command line. See Steps to Obfuscate a Project for details on running the fabric tasks.

Parameters

All parameters must be preceded by a double dash. Some parameter may use a supplied value (as in the brackets (<>) below).

platform <platform name>

• The destination platform.

• This will be used to apply the platform directives.

• Optional.

  $ python pymixup.py --norebuild
  

verbose

• Print verbose messages.

• Optional.

  $ python pymixup.py --verbose
  

doimport

• Import source files before obfuscating.

• Optional.

• Example:

  $ python pymixup.py --doimport
  

Fabric automated tasks

The import, obfuscate, export, and deploy tasks are automated using Fabric. See Steps to Obfuscate a Project for a description of their use.
