Setuptools integration

Upon installation, isort enables a setuptools command that checks Python files declared by your project.

Running python setup.py isort on the command line will check the files listed in your py_modules and packages. If any warning is found, the command will exit with an error code:

$ python setup.py isort 

Also, to allow users to be able to use the command without having to install isort themselves, add isort to the setup_requires of your setup() like so:

setup( name="project", packages=["project"], setup_requires=[ "isort" ] )
