nuitka-setuptools 2.0

Extension to setuptools to run your package through nuitka to produce compiled, faster, obfuscated binary modules.

Nuitka [http://nuitka.net/pages/overview.html] is a python compiler with full language support and CPython compatibility.

It’s fully compatible with Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, and 3.6.

You feed it your Python app, it does a lot of clever things, and spits out an executable or extension module.

This module provides some hooks to add to your python packages setup.py to automatically run some/all of your code through nuitka when building a binary dist. This will typically be done with python setup.py bdist_wheel to create a wheel for distribution.

With nuitka-setuptools this wheel can be devoid of pure python and only contain compiled code which is not only faster (quote: Nuitka is more than 2 times faster than CPython) but has a relatively high level of code security.

Basic Usage: setup.py:

import sys
from setuptools import setup

# Get the long description from the README file
with open(path.join(path.dirname(__file__), 'README.rst'), 'r') as f:
    long_description = f.read()

packages = ['mod', 'pkg']

if any('bdist' in arg for arg in sys.argv):
    from nuitka_setuptools import Nuitka, Compile

    build_settings = dict(
        # Compile module
        cmdclass={'build_ext': Nuitka},
        ext_modules=Compile(packages),
    )
else:
    build_settings = {}
