Overview

wheeldiff is a command-line tool to show differences between two Python wheels.

wheeldiff exits with an exit code of 2 if any differences were found, or 0 if no differences were found.

Some types of difference can be ignored via the following options:

• --ignore version: ignore differences in version number
• --ignore record: ignore differences in dist-info RECORD file (checksums of wheel content)

Examples

Finding various differences:

$ wheeldiff rpmdyn-2023.5.7-py3-none-any.whl rpmdyn-2023.5.7.3-py3-none-any.whl; $?
