NAME

       sip-wheel - build a wheel for the sip project

SYNOPSIS

       sip-wheel [options]

DESCRIPTION

       sip-wheel creates a wheel (a binary distribution) than be uploaded to PyPI.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Display a help message.

       -V, --version
              Display the SIP version number.

       --quiet
              All progress messages are disabled.

       --verbose
              Verbose progress messages are enabled.

       --api-dir DIR
              A  QScintilla  .api  file  is  created in DIR.  This must be a name relative to the
              directory where the wheel will be installed.

       --build-dir DIR
              DIR is created as a build directory in which all generated files will  be  created.
              This build directory is not removed after the build has been completed.  By default
              a temporary build directory is created which is removed after the  build  has  been
              completed.

       --build-tag TAG
              TAG  is  the build tag to be used in the name of the wheel.  By default the name of
              the wheel does not include a build tag.

       --concatenate N
              The generated code is split into N files.  By default one  file  is  generated  for
              each C structure or C++ class.  Specifying a low value of N can significantly speed
              up the build of large projects.

       --disable NAME
              The NAME bindings are disabled and will not be built.  This option may be specified
              multiple  times.   It  is  only  available if the project contains multiple sets of
              bindings.

       --disabled-feature TAG
              The TAG feature tag is disabled.  This option may be specified multiple times.

       --enable NAME
              The NAME bindings are enabled and will  be  built.   Any  associated  configuration
              tests  that  would normally be run to determine if the bindings should be built are
              suppressed.  This option may be specified multiple times.  It is only available  if
              the project contains multiple sets of bindings.

       --no-manylinux
              Support  for  manylinux  in  the platform tag of a name of a wheel is disabled.  It
              should only be used if support for older versions of pip is required.

       --name NAME
              NAME is used instead of the PyPI project name in the  pyproject.toml  file  in  the
              name of the wheel file.

       --debug
              A build with debugging symbols is performed.

       --no-docstrings
              The  generation of docstrings that describe the signature of all functions, methods
              and constructors is disabled.

       --pep484-pyi
              The generation of Python type hints stub files is enabled.  These files  contain  a
              description of a module's API that is compliant with PEP 484.

       --protected-is-public
              SIP can generate code to provide access to protected C++ functions from Python.  On
              non-Windows platforms this  code  can  be  avoided  if  the  protected  keyword  is
              redefined as public during compilation.  This can result in a significant reduction
              in the size of a generated Python module.  This option enables the redefinition  of
              protected and is the default on all platforms except Windows.

       --no-protected-is-public
              This  option  disables  the  redefinition  of  protected  to  access  protected C++
              functions from Python and is the default on Windows.

       --tracing
              Debugging statements that trace the execution of  the  bindings  are  automatically
              generated.  By default the statements are not generated.

                                                                                     sip-wheel(1)
