NAME

       nuitka-run - the Python compiler

SYNOPSIS

       nuitka-run [options] main_module.py

OPTIONS

       --version
              show program's version number and exit

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       --module
              Create an extension module executable instead of a program. Defaults to off.

       --standalone, --portable
              Enable  standalone mode in build. This allows you to transfer the created binary to
              other machines without it relying on an existing Python  installation.  It  implies
              these   options:   "--recurse-all  --recursestdlib".  You  may  also  want  to  use
              "--pythonflag=no_site" to avoid the "site.py" module. Defaults to off.

       --nofreeze-stdlib
              In standalone mode by default all modules of standard library  will  be  frozen  as
              bytecode.  This  compiles  them  all and as a result compilation time will increase
              very much.

       --python-version=PYTHON_VERSION
              Major version of Python to be used, one of '2.6', '2.7', '3.2',  '3.3',  '3.4',  or
              '3.5'. Defaults to what you run Nuitka with (currently 2.7)

       --python-debug, --python-dbg
              Use  debug  version  or  not.  Default  uses what you are using to run Nuitka, most
              likely a non-debug version.

       --python-flag=PYTHON_FLAGS
              Python flags to use. Default uses what you are using to run Nuitka, this enforces a
              specific  mode.  These  are  options that also exist to standard Python executable.
              Currently supported: "-S" (alias nosite), "static_hashes" (not use  Randomization),
              "no_warnings" (do not give Python runtime warnings). Default empty.

       --warn-implicit-exceptions
              Given warnings for implicit exceptions detected at compile time.

   Control the recursion into imported modules:

       --recurse-stdlib
              Also descend into imported modules from standard library. Defaults to off.

       --recurse-none
              When  --recurse-none  is  used,  do  not  descend into any imported modules at all,
              overrides all other recursion options. Defaults to off.

       --recurse-all, --recurse-on
              When --recurse-all is used, attempt to descend into all imported modules.  Defaults
              to off.

       --recurse-to=MODULE/PACKAGE
              Recurse  to  that  module,  or  if  a  package,  to the whole package. Can be given
              multiple times. Default empty.

       --recurse-not-to=MODULE/PACKAGE
              Do not recurse to that module, or if a package, to the whole package in  any  case,
              overrides all other options. Can be given multiple times. Default empty.

       --recurse-plugins=MODULE/PACKAGE, --recurse-directory=MODULE/PACKAGE
              Recurse  into that directory, no matter if it's used by the given main program in a
              visible form. Overrides all other recursion options. Can be given  multiple  times.
              Default empty.

       --recurse-files=PATTERN, --recurse-pattern=PATTERN
              Recurse into files matching the PATTERN. Overrides all recursion other options. Can
              be given multiple times.  Default empty.

   Immediate execution after compilation:

       --run, --execute
              Execute immediately the created binary (or import the compiled module). Defaults to
              on.

       --debugger, --gdb
              Execute inside "gdb" to automatically get a stack trace. Defaults to off.

       --execute-with-pythonpath, --keep-pythonpath
              When  immediately executing the created binary (--execute), don't reset PYTHONPATH.
              When all modules are successfully  included,  you  ought  to  not  need  PYTHONPATH
              anymore.

   Dump options for internal tree:

       --dump-xml, --xml
              Dump the final result of optimization as XML, then exit.

       --display-tree
              Display the final result of optimization in a GUI, then exit.

   Code generation choices:

       --improved, --enhanced
              Allow  minor  deviations  from CPython behavior, e.g.  better tracebacks, which are
              not really incompatible, but different.

       --file-reference-choice=FILE_REFERENCE_MODE
              Select what value "__file__" is going to be. With "runtime" (default for standalone
              binary mode and module mode), the created binaries and modules, use the location of
              themselves to deduct the value of "__file__". Included packages pretend  to  be  in
              directories  below  that  location.  This  allows  you  to  include  data  files in
              deployments. If you merely seek acceleration,  it's  better  for  you  to  use  the
              "original"  value,  where  the  source files location will be used. With "frozen" a
              notation "<frozen module_name>" is used. For compatibility reasons, the  "__file__"
              value will always have ".py" suffix independent of what it really is.

   Output directory choices:

       --output-dir=DIRECTORY
              Specify  where intermediate and final output files should be put. DIRECTORY will be
              populated with C++ files, object files, etc. Defaults to current directory.

       --remove-output
              Removes the build directory after producing the module or  exe  file.  Defaults  to
              off.

   Debug features:

       --debug
              Executing  all  self  checks  possible  to  find  errors  in Nuitka, do not use for
              production. Defaults to off.

       --unstripped, --no-strip, --unstriped
              Keep debug info in the resulting  object  file  for  better  debugger  interaction.
              Defaults to off.

       --profile
              Enable vmprof based profiling of time spent. Defaults to off.

       --graph
              Create graph of optimization process. Defaults to off.

       --trace-execution
              Traced  execution  output, output the line of code before executing it. Defaults to
              off.

       --recompile-c++-only
              Take existing files and compile them again.Allows compiling edited C++  files  with
              the  C++ compiler for quick debugging changes to the generated source.  Defaults to
              off. Depends on compiling Python source to determine which files it should look at.

       --generate-c++-only
              Generate only C++ source code, and do not compile it to binary or module.  This  is
              for debugging and code coverage analysis that doesn't waste CPU. Defaults to off.

       --experimental
              Use  features  declared  as  'experimental'.  May have no effect if no experimental
              features are present in the code. Defaults to off.

   Backend C++ compiler choice:

       --clang
              Enforce the use of clang (needs clang 3.2 or higher).  Defaults to off.

       --mingw
              Enforce the use of MinGW on Windows. Defaults to off.

       --msvc=MSVC
              Enforce the use of specific MSVC version on Windows.  Allowed values are e.g.  9.0,
              9.0exp,  specify  an  illegal value for a list of installed compilers.  Defaults to
              the most recent version.

       -j N, --jobs=N
              Specify the allowed number of parallel C++ compiler jobs. Defaults  to  the  system
              CPU count.

       --lto  Use  link time optimizations if available and usable (g++ 4.6 and higher). Defaults
              to off.

   Tracing features:

       --show-scons
              Operate Scons in non-quiet mode, showing the executed commands. Defaults to off.

       --show-progress
              Provide progress information and statistics. Defaults to off.

       --show-memory
              Provide memory information and statistics. Defaults to off.

       --show-modules
              Provide a final summary on included modules. Defaults to off.

       --verbose
              Output details of actions taken, esp. in optimizations. Can become a lot.  Defaults
              to off.

   Windows specific output control:

       --windows-disable-console
              When compiling for Windows, disable the console window. Defaults to off.

       --windows-icon=ICON_PATH, --icon=ICON_PATH
              Add executable icon (Windows only).

   Plugin control:

       --plugin-enable=PLUGINS_ENABLED, --enable-plugin=PLUGINS_ENABLED
              Enabled plugins. Must be plug-in names. Use --pluginlist to query the full list and
              exit. Default empty.

       --plugin-disable=PLUGINS_DISABLED, --disable-plugin=PLUGINS_DISABLED
              Disabled plugins. Must be plug-in names. Use --pluginlist to query  the  full  list
              and exit. Default empty.

       --plugin-no-detection
              Plugins  can  detect if they might be used, and the you can disable the warning via
              --plugin-disable=pluginthat-warned, or you can  use  this  option  to  disable  the
              mechanism  entirely,  which  also  speeds up compilation slightly of course as this
              detection code is run in vain once you  are  certain  of  which  plug-ins  to  use.
              Defaults to off.
