sip-module1

Usage

Overview

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.
