setuptools-cythonize 1.0.0

No project description provided

The setuptools-cythonize project attempts to provide distutils commands to compile Python code into C code using Cython. The generated code is packaged into a platform dependent archive.

Install

$> sudo pip install setuptools-cythonize

Setup configuration

Add the cmdclass keyword to the setup:

from setuptools_cythonize import get_cmdclass

setup(
    cmdclass=get_cmdclass(),
    name="my_package",
    version="2.0.5",
    description="My custom library",
    ...
)

Note

the function get_cmdclass() force wheel as default format (recommended format for binary distribution). This behavior can be disabled by setting wheel_default=False.

Some packages can be excluded from the cythonization by setting the exclude_cythonize option. The module matching is done using the function fnmatch.fnmatchcase .

setup(
    cmdclass=get_cmdclass(),
    name="my_package",
    ...
    options={
        'build_py':
            {'exclude_cythonize': ['my_package.subpack*']}
    },
    ...
)

Packaging

Call the setup.py file to generate the package, all Python modules (except the ones defined in exclude_cythonize) will be compiled and packaged:

$> python setup.py bdist --cythonize
