Interface Python with pkg-config
Project description
pkgconfig is a Python module to interface with the pkg-config command line tool and supports Python 2.6+.
It can be used to
check if a package exists
>>> pkgconfig.exists('glib-2.0') True
check if a package meets certain version requirements
>>> pkgconfig.installed('glib-2.0', '< 2.26') False
query CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
>>> pkgconfig.cflags('glib-2.0') '-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include' >>> pkgconfig.libs('glib-2.0') '-lglib-2.0'
parse the output to build extensions with setup.py
>>> d = pkgconfig.parse('glib-2.0') >>> d['libraries'] set([u'glib-2.0'])
The pkgconfig module is licensed under the MIT license.
