# See https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/1516. Running this
# script creates a setup.py filled out with information generated by
# poetry when parsing the pyproject.toml.

Hey @adamghill. First of all, thanks for the great content! I got inspired on your project and I created a docker container with your command built in.

I had a need to provide editable poetry project in some pip only projects, so I found your script pretty useful! I just wrapped up your content in a docker container. If you want to check it out, please look at this repo: https://github.com/joepreludian/poetry-to-setup-py

Thank you!

Thanks to both of you! @joepreludian the integration works like a charm cheers!
