!!! note
Rather than using this option, it's recommended you set
`project.requires-python` in `pyproject.toml` instead:
Rather than using this option, it's recommended you set this value
statically in a way that your build backend can use it, too. This ensures
that your package's metadata is correct when published on PyPI.
```toml
[project]
requires-python = ">=3.6"
```
A few things to note:
- If your project didn't already have a `pyproject.toml`, be sure to
set the build system to your build backend.
- If you have a `pyproject.toml` containing a `[project]` table, you can
specify `requires-python` there.
```toml
[build-system]
requires = ["setuptools>=42", "wheel"]
build-backend = "setuptools.build_meta"
[project]
requires-python = ">=3.6"
```
- If you didn't already have a `pyproject.toml` that had a `[project]`
table, you should migrate values from `setup.py` or `setup.cfg`, or
list them in the [the `dynamic` field](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/declaring-project-metadata/#dynamic).
The values to include and the format is listed in the
[project source metadata specification](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/declaring-project-metadata/#dynamic)
(as originally defined in PEP 621).
Note that build backend support for the `[project]` table is still patchy, and
adding `[project]` to `pyproject.toml` can change the behaviour of your build
(e.g. setuptools may ignore `install_requires` specified via `setup.py` or
`setup.cfg`). Make sure to double-check the build after adding.

This option is not available in `pyproject.toml` under
`tool.cibuildwheel.project-requires-python`, since it should be set with the
[PEP621](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0621/) location instead,
`project.requires-python`.
- If you're using setuptools, [you can set this value in `setup.cfg` or `setup.py`](https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/dependency_management.html#python-requirement)
and cibuildwheel will read it from there.
