mkwheelhouse 0.3.0

Amazon S3 wheelhouse generator

# mkwheelhouse

Amazon S3 wheelhouse generator.

Wheels are the latest standard in distributing binary for Python. Wheels cut down scipy’s installation time from 15 minutes to 15 seconds.

> [Wheel documentation][wheel-docs]

## Usage

Generate wheels for all listed PACKAGE`s and their dependencies, then upload them to Amazon S3 `BUCKET:

`bash $ mkwheelhouse BUCKET [PACKAGE...] `

Then install with pip like usual, but preferring generated wheels:

`bash $ pip install --find-links BUCKET/index.html PACKAGE `

### Additional options

• -h, –help

  Print usage information and exit.

• -r, –requirement REQUIREMENTS_FILE

  Also include packages (and their dependencies) from the pip requirements file REQUIREMENTS_FILE. Can be specified multiple times and combined with positional PACKAGE arguments.

• -e, –exclude WHEEL_FILENAME:

  Don’t upload built wheel with filename WHEEL_FILENAME. Note this is the final wheel filename, like argparse-1.3.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl, not the bare package name.

  Specifying an exclusion will not remove pre-existing built wheels from S3; you’ll have to remove those wheels from the bucket manually.

## Notes

• Python 2 and 3

• Set a [bucket policy to make all objects publicly accessible][public-policy] or Pip won’t be able to download wheels from your wheelhouse.
