commit 9d705ff9cc5955e5468126f3494da66dc1328ae1 Author: Damian Johnson atagar@torproject.org Date: Fri Jun 5 08:51:09 2015 -0700

Simplifying run_nyx and fixing prerequisite checks

Yeah, that wasn't gonna work. We imported nyx, *then* ran a function to check for ImportErrors. If we were missing a prereqisite then the initial import would've failed making our _check_prereq() function pointless.

Stem requires Python 2.6 so that check is pointless. As for the rest it's both simpler and safer to import nyx then see what breaks.

This also makes our run_nyx script dead simple (main() method is now in our __init__.py). --- nyx/__init__.py | 34 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- run_nyx | 56 ++----------------------------------------------------- 2 files changed, 34 insertions(+), 56 deletions(-)
