google-crc32c 1.0.0

A python wrapper of the C library 'Google CRC32C'

google-crc32c

This package wraps the google/crc32c hardware-based implementation of the CRC32C hashing algorithm. Multiple wheels are distributed as well as source. If a wheel is not published for the python version and platform you are using, you will need to compile crc32c using a C toolchain.

Building

Be sure to check out all submodules:

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/googleapis/python-crc32c

Prerequisites

On Linux:

• docker
• python3.7

On OS X:

• make
• Official python.org Python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7

On Windows:

• cmake
• Official python.org Python 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7
• Visual Studio 15 2017 (just the compiler toolchain)

Unfortunately, libcrc32c relies on many C++11 features, so building a Python 2.7 extension with the Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7 is infeasible.

Building Wheels

On Linux:

./scripts/manylinux/build.sh

On OS X:

./scripts/osx/build.sh

On Windows: see .appveyor.yml.

Testing/Verify Wheels

On Linux (i.e. a host OS, not a docker container):

$ ./scripts/manylinux/check-37.sh
...

Installing locally for testing

Initialize the submodules and build the main libcrc32c.so shared library using cmake / make:

$ cd python-crc32c
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ python -m venv venv
$ venv/bin/pip install --upgrade setuptools pip wheel
$ venv/bin/pip install cmake
$ mkdir usr
$ export CRC32C_INSTALL_PREFIX=$(pwd)/usr
$ mkdir google_crc32c/build
$ cd google_crc32c/build
$ ../../venv/bin/cmake \
>   -DCRC32C_BUILD_TESTS=no \
>   -DCRC32C_BUILD_BENCHMARKS=no \
>   -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=yes \
>   -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=${CRC32C_INSTALL_PREFIX} \
>   ..
$ make all install
$ cd ../..

Now, run the tests:

$ venv/bin/pip install -e .[testing]
$ venv/bin/py.test tests/
