Python Paketo Buildpack Promotion

Summary

A Python Buildpack exists as a community created buildpack in the Paketo Community Org. This RFC proposes the promotion of the Python Buildpack from a "Community" buildpack to an official Paketo Buildpack.

Motivation

The community Python Buildpack has reached an initial feature completion state and supports the most common Python app use cases and package managers (pip, pipenv, conda etc.). The contributors of this buildpack has recently restructured it to follow Paketo Buildpack philosophies like modularity, meaningful API etc. (See RFC, Implementation)

Python is one of the most popular programming languages, and its promotion to an official Paketo buildpack would mean that it can be exposed to a much broader set of users via the Paketo builders.

Detailed Explanation

The Python Buildpack should be promoted to the paketo-buildpacks github org. and considered an official language-family supported by the Paketo project. The Python Buildpack should be included in Paketo builders (Full, Base) and promoted in website content.

Upon promotion, future enhancements should be made from directly within the paketo-buildpacks org.

Implementation

The following repos should be moved from the paketo-community to paketo-buildpacks Github Org:

  • All Python Buildpack IDs should be updated to paketo-buildpacks/<RUNTIME>

  • All Python Buildpack artifacts should be shipped to index.docker.io/paketobuildpacks/<RUNTIME> and gcr.io/paketo-buildpacks/<RUNTIME>

  • All Python buildpacks will continue to be maintained by the Python subteam

  • Versioning of all buildpacks should continue as is.

  • The Python Buildpack should be added to Base & Full Paketo Builders as described in the Builder Detection Ordering RFC

  • Sample apps for common Python app configurations should be added to the Paketo samples repo

  • Python buildpack docs should be added to Paketo docs

  • Python logo should be added to the Paketo website
