QuickstartΒΆ
To build a wheel for your project:
python -m pip install build
python -m build --wheel
The wheel will go to dist/yourproject-<tags>.whl
.
If you want to make universal (Python 2/3 compatible, pure Python) wheels, add the following
section to your setup.cfg
:
[bdist_wheel]
universal = 1
To convert an .egg
or file to a wheel:
wheel convert youreggfile.egg
Similarly, to convert a Windows installer (made using python setup.py bdist_wininst
) to a
wheel:
wheel convert yourinstaller.exe
