medcoupling 9.3.0.post1

Python repackaging of the MEDCoupling library

MEDCoupling

This repository provides a Python repackaging of the latest version (9.3.0) of the MEDCoupling library via a Python file setup.py and hence installable via pip.

Running python3 setup.py build will

1. Download the source code of MEDCoupling from salome-platform.org
2. Build the C++ / Python libraries using cmake and swig
3. Distribute generated files using setuptools

Installation

To install MEDCoupling, you can now simply use pip and its associated options

pip install -U medcoupling

Binary wheels are available for 64-bit Windows (win_amd64) and Linux-like platforms (manylinux1_x86_64). In accordance with the release notes of SALOME 9.3.0, the wheels are only built with Python 3.6. Sadly macOS is not supported (consult developers of MEDCoupling).

To assure that MEDCoupling is well installed, try importing it in your Python

import medcoupling  # should not raise error

Versioning

The version of this package (on PyPI) follows that of MEDCoupling. For MEDCoupling 9.3.0 for instance, we use

9.3.0r1, 9.3.0r2, ...

to designate all PyPI releases based on MEDCoupling 9.3.0. The suffix r[x] is included (abusively, since according to PEP 440 it is for post releases) for possible bug fixes coming from this package.

Uploading to PyPI

To upload binary wheels to PyPI, type

# on Windows
python setup.py bdist_wheel --plat-name win_amd64

# on Linux
python3 setup.py bdist_wheel --plat-name manylinux1_x86_64

python[3] -m twine upload dist/*
