## Options summary
`cibuildwheel` allows for easy customization of the various phases of the build process demonstrated above:
| | Option | |
|---|---|---|
| **Target wheels** | `CIBW_PLATFORM` | Override the auto-detected target platform |
| | `CIBW_BUILD` | Build only certain Python versions |
| | `CIBW_SKIP` | Skip certain Python versions |
| **Build parameters** | `CIBW_BUILD_VERBOSITY` | Increase or decrease the output of `pip wheel` |
| **Build environment** | `CIBW_ENVIRONMENT` | Set environment variables needed during the build |
| | `CIBW_BEFORE_BUILD` | Execute a shell command preparing each wheel's build |
| | `CIBW_MANYLINUX1_X86_64_IMAGE` | Specify an alternative manylinx1 x86_64 docker image |
| | `CIBW_MANYLINUX1_I686_IMAGE` | Specify an alternative manylinux1 i686 docker image |
| **Tests** | `CIBW_TEST_COMMAND` | Execute a shell command to test all built wheels |
| | `CIBW_TEST_REQUIRES` | Install Python dependencies before running the tests |
| | `CIBW_TEST_EXTRAS` | Install Python dependencies before running the tests using ``extras_require``|
Most of the config is via environment variables. These go into `.travis.yml`, `appveyor.yml`, and `.circleci/config.yml` nicely.
## Build selection
### CIBW_PLATFORM
Options: `auto` `linux` `macos` `windows`
Default: `auto`
`auto` will auto-detect platform using environment variables, such as `TRAVIS_OS_NAME`/`APPVEYOR`/`CIRCLECI`.
For `linux` you need Docker running, on Mac or Linux. For `macos`, you need a Mac machine, and note that this script is going to automatically install MacPython on your system, so don't run on your development machine. For `windows`, you need to run in Windows, and it will build and test for all versions of Python at `C:\PythonXX[-x64]`.
### CIBW_BUILD and CIBW_SKIP
Space-separated list of builds to build and skip. Each build has an identifier like `cp27-manylinux1_x86_64` or `cp34-macosx_10_6_intel` - you can list specific ones to build and `cibuildwheel` will only build those, and/or list ones to skip and `cibuildwheel` won't try to build them.
When both options are specified, both conditions are applied and only builds with a tag that matches `CIBW_BUILD` and does not match `CIBW_SKIP` will be built.
The format is `python_tag-platform_tag`. The tags are as defined in [PEP 0425](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0425/#details).
Python tags look like `cp27` `cp34` `cp35` `cp36` `cp37`
Platform tags look like `macosx_10_6_intel` `manylinux1_x86_64` `manylinux1_i686` `win32` `win_amd64`
You can also use shell-style globbing syntax (as per `fnmatch`)
Examples:
- Only build on Python 3.6: `CIBW_BUILD=cp36-*`
- Skip building on Python 2.7 on the Mac: `CIBW_SKIP=cp27-macosx_10_6_intel`
- Skip building on Python 2.7 on all platforms: `CIBW_SKIP=cp27-*`
- Skip Python 2.7 on Windows: `CIBW_SKIP=cp27-win*`
- Skip Python 2.7 on 32-bit Windows: `CIBW_SKIP=cp27-win32`
- Skip Python 3.4 and Python 3.5: `CIBW_SKIP=cp34-* cp35-*`
- Skip Python 3.6 on Linux: `CIBW_SKIP=cp36-manylinux*`
- Only build on Python 3 and skip 32-bit builds: `CIBW_BUILD=cp3?-*` and `CIBW_SKIP=*-win32 *-manylinux1_i686`
## Build environment
### CIBW_ENVIRONMENT
A space-separated list of environment variables to set during the build. Bash syntax should be used (even on Windows!).
You must set this variable to pass variables to Linux builds (since they execute in a Docker container). It also works for the other platforms.
You can use `$PATH` syntax to insert other variables, or the `$(pwd)` syntax to insert the output of other shell commands.
Example: `CFLAGS="-g -Wall" CXXFLAGS="-Wall"`
Example: `PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin`
Example: `BUILD_TIME="$(date)"`
Example: `PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL="https://pypi.myorg.com/simple"`
Platform-specific variants also available:
`CIBW_ENVIRONMENT_MACOS` | `CIBW_ENVIRONMENT_WINDOWS` | `CIBW_ENVIRONMENT_LINUX`
In addition to the above, `cibuildwheel` always defines the environment variable `CIBUILDWHEEL=1`. This can be useful for [building wheels with optional extensions](https://github.com/joerick/cibuildwheel/wiki/Building-packages-with-optional-C-extensions).
### CIBW_BEFORE_BUILD
A shell command to run before building the wheel. This option allows you to run a command in **each** Python environment before the `pip wheel` command. This is useful if you need to set up some dependency so it's available during the build.
If dependencies are required to build your wheel (for example if you include a header from a Python module), set this to `pip install .`, and the dependencies will be installed automatically by pip. However, this means your package will be built twice - if your package takes a long time to build, you might wish to manually list the dependencies here instead.
The active Python binary can be accessed using `python`, and pip with `pip`; `cibuildwheel` makes sure the right version of Python and pip will be executed. `{project}` can be used as a placeholder for the absolute path to the project's root.
Example: `pip install .`
Example: `pip install pybind11`
Example: `yum install -y libffi-dev && pip install .`
Platform-specific variants also available:
`CIBW_BEFORE_BUILD_MACOS` | `CIBW_BEFORE_BUILD_WINDOWS` | `CIBW_BEFORE_BUILD_LINUX`
### CIBW_MANYLINUX1_X86_64_IMAGE and CIBW_MANYLINUX1_I686_IMAGE
An alternative docker image to be used for building [`manylinux1`](https://github.com/pypa/manylinux) wheels. `cibuildwheel` will then pull these instead of the official images, [`quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64`](https://quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_i686) and [`quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_i686`](https://quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_i686).
Beware to specify a valid docker image that can be used the same as the official, default docker images: all necessary Python and pip versions need to be present in `/opt/python/`, and the `auditwheel` tool needs to be present for `cibuildwheel` to work. Apart from that, the architecture and relevant shared system libraries need to be manylinux1-compatible in order to produce valid `manylinux1` wheels (see https://github.com/pypa/manylinux and [PEP 513](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0513/) for more details).
Example: `dockcross/manylinux-x64`
Example: `dockcross/manylinux-x86`
## Testing
### CIBW_TEST_COMMAND
Shell command to run tests after the build. The wheel will be installed automatically and available for import from the tests. `{project}` can be used as a placeholder for the absolute path to the project's root and will be replaced by `cibuildwheel`.
On Linux and Mac, the command runs in a shell, so you can write things like `cmd1 && cmd2`.
Example: `nosetests {project}/tests`
Platform-specific variants also available:
`CIBW_TEST_COMMAND_MACOS` | `CIBW_TEST_COMMAND_WINDOWS` | `CIBW_TEST_COMMAND_LINUX`
### CIBW_TEST_REQUIRES
Space-separated list of dependencies required for running the tests.
Example: `pytest`
Example: `nose==1.3.7 moto==0.4.31`
Platform-specific variants also available:
`CIBW_TEST_REQUIRES_MACOS` | `CIBW_TEST_REQUIRES_WINDOWS` | `CIBW_TEST_REQUIRES_LINUX`
### CIBW_TEST_EXTRAS
Comma-separated list of
[extras_require](https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#declaring-extras-optional-features-with-their-own-dependencies)
options that should be included when installing the wheel prior to running the
tests. This can be used to avoid having to redefine test dependencies in
`CIBW_TEST_REQUIRES` if they are already defined in `setup.py` or
`setup.cfg`.
Example: `test,qt` (will cause the wheel to be installed with `pip install <wheel_file>[test,qt]`)
Platform-specific variants also available:
`CIBW_TEST_EXTRAS_MACOS` | `CIBW_TEST_EXTRAS_WINDOWS` | `CIBW_TEST_EXTRAS_LINUX`
## Other
### CIBW_BUILD_VERBOSITY
An number from 1 to 3 to increase the level of verbosity (corresponding to invoking pip with `-v`, `-vv`, and `-vvv`), between -1 and -3 (`-q`, `-qq`, and `-qqq`), or just 0 (default verbosity). These flags are useful while debugging a build when the output of the actual build invoked by `pip wheel` is required.
Platform-specific variants also available:
`CIBW_BUILD_VERBOSITY_MACOS` | `CIBW_BUILD_VERBOSITY_WINDOWS` | `CIBW_BUILD_VERBOSITY_LINUX`
