cibw-install-pythons
This is an unofficial script for installing the Python versions used by
cibuildwheel. Currently, only macOS is
supported.
This script is intended for use in CI environments only. It installs CPython
versions system-wide, and there is no easy way to change that behavior because
the CPython pkg files used by cibuildwheel cannot be relocated upon
installation. If you run this script on your development machine, you will
likely break something.
Installation
python -m pip install cibw-install-pythons
Usage
CI=1 python -m cibw-install-pythons macos
If the CI=1 variable is not provided, cibuildwheel aborts by default to
avoid damaging systems not in CI environments.
CPython is always installed system-wide. PyPy and GraalPy are installed by
default in a cache under your $HOME directory. To change where these Python
versions are installed, use the CIBW_CACHE_PATH environment variable.
For example, to install in a system-wide cache,
CI=1 CIBW_CACHE_PATH=/Library/Caches/cibuildwheel python \
-m cibw-install-pythons macos
