Passing config settings to build backends
|
||||||
|
-----------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `%pyproject_buildrequires` and `%pyproject_wheel` macros accept a `-C` flag
|
||||||
|
to pass [configuration settings][config_settings] to the build backend.
|
||||||
|
Options take the form of `-C KEY`, `-C KEY=VALUE`, or `-C--option-with-dashes`.
|
||||||
|
Pass `-C` multiple times to specify multiple options.
|
||||||
|
This option is equivalent to pip's `--config-settings` flag.
|
||||||
|
These are passed on to PEP 517 hooks' `config_settings` argument as a Python
|
||||||
|
dictionary.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `%pyproject_buildrequires` macro passes these options to the
|
||||||
|
`get_requires_for_build_wheel` and `prepare_metadata_for_build_wheel` hooks.
|
||||||
|
Passing `-C` to `%pyproject_buildrequires` is incompatible with `-N` which does
|
||||||
|
not call these hooks at all.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `%pyproject_wheel` macro passes these options to the `build_wheel` hook.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Consult the project's upstream documentation and/or the corresponding build
|
||||||
|
backend's documentation for more information.
|
||||||
|
Note that some projects don't use config settings at all
|
||||||
|
and other projects may only accept config settings for one of the two steps.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that the current implementation of the macros uses `pip` to build wheels.
|
||||||
|
On some systems (notably on RHEL 9 with Python 3.9),
|
||||||
|
`pip` is too old to understand `--config-settings`.
|
||||||
|
Using the `-C` option for `%pyproject_wheel` (or `%pyproject_buildrequires -w`)
|
||||||
|
is not supported there and will result to an error like:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Usage:
|
||||||
|
/usr/bin/python3 -m pip wheel [options] <requirement specifier> ...
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
no such option: --config-settings
