wheel pack¶
Usage¶
wheel pack <wheel_directory>
Description¶
Repack a previously unpacked wheel file.
This command can be used to repack a wheel file after its contents have been modified.
This is the equivalent of zip -r <wheel_file> <wheel_directory>
except that it regenerates the
RECORD
file which contains hashes of all included files.
Options¶
- -d, --dest-dir <dir>¶
Directory to put the new wheel file into.
- --build-number <tag>¶
Override the build tag in the new wheel file name
Examples¶
Unpack a wheel, add a dummy module and then repack it (with a new build number):
$ wheel unpack someproject-1.5.0-py2-py3-none.whl Unpacking to: ./someproject-1.5.0 $ touch someproject-1.5.0/somepackage/module.py $ wheel pack --build-number 2 someproject-1.5.0 Repacking wheel as ./someproject-1.5.0-2-py2-py3-none.whl...OK
