NAME
sip-module - generate a sip extension module
SYNOPSIS
sip-module [options] name
name is the fully qualified name of the sip module (i.e. including the package name).
DESCRIPTION
sip-module builds one of more of the elements of the sip module for a set of package projects.
OPTIONS
- -h, --help
-
Display a help message.
- -V, --version
-
Display the SIP version number.
- --abi-version MAJOR[.MINOR]
-
The major version number of the ABI implemented by the sip module is MAJOR. If a minor version number is also specified it is interpreted as a minimum minor version rather than the exact minor version to be used. By default the very latest version is used.
- --project NAME
-
The name of the project as it would appear on PyPI is NAME. By default the name is derived from the fully qualified name of the sip module.
- --sdist
-
Create an sdist which can then be installed by pip or uploaded to PyPI.
pip can also be used to create a wheel from the sdist. However, for Linux wheels, auditwheel must be run for the wheel before it can be uploaded to PyPI.
- --setup-cfg FILE
-
FILE is copied to the sdist as setup.cfg instead of the default version. This allows the sdist to be customised. A number of macros may be specified in the setup.cfg file: @SIP_MODULE_FQ_NAME@ is replaced by the fully qualified name of the sip module.
@SIP_MODULE_PACKAGE_NAME@ is replaced by the module's project top-level package name.
@SIP_MODULE_PROJECT_NAME@ is replaced by the module's project name as it would appear on PyPI.
@SIP_MODULE_VERSION@ is replaced by the version number of the module.
- --sip-h
-
Create a sip.h header file that defines the C ABI implemented by the sip module.
- --sip-rst
-
Create a sip.rst file that documents the Python API implemented by the sip module.
- --target-dir DIR
-
Each of the module's elements will be created in DIR.
