### Installing as a standalone program (advanced)
|
||||
|
||||
Installing python-build as a standalone program will give you access to
|
||||
the `python-build` command for precise control over Python version
|
||||
installation. If you have pyenv installed, you will also be able to
|
||||
use the `pyenv install` command.

git clone git://github.com/yyuu/pyenv.git
|
||||
cd pyenv/plugins/python-build
|
||||
./install.sh
|
||||
|
||||
This will install python-build into `/usr/local`. If you do not have
|
||||
write permission to `/usr/local`, you will need to run `sudo
|

./install.sh` instead. You can install to a different prefix by

setting the `PREFIX` environment variable.

### Installing with Homebrew (for OS X users)
|
||||
|
||||
Mac OS X users can install python-build with the [Homebrew](http://brew.sh)
|
||||
package manager. This will give you access to the `python-build` command. If you
|
||||
have pyenv installed, you will also be able to use the `pyenv install` command.
|
||||
|
||||
*This is the recommended method of installation if you installed pyenv with
|
||||
Homebrew.*
|
||||
|
||||
brew install pyenv
|
||||
|
||||
Or, if you would like to install the latest development release:
|
||||
|
||||
brew install --HEAD pyenv
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Before you begin, you should ensure that your build environment has the proper
|
||||
system dependencies for compiling the wanted Python Version (see our [recommendations](https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv/wiki#suggested-build-environment)).
|
||||
|
||||
### Using `pyenv install` with pyenv
|
||||
|
||||
To install a Python version for use with pyenv, run `pyenv install` with
|
||||
the exact name of the version you want to install. For example,
|
||||
exact name of the version you want to install. For example,
|
||||
|
||||
pyenv install 2.7.4
|
||||
|
||||
Python versions will be installed into a directory of the same name
|
||||
under `~/.pyenv/versions`.
|
||||
Python versions will be installed into a directory of the same name under
|
||||
`~/.pyenv/versions`.
|
||||
|
||||
To see a list of all available Python versions, run `pyenv install --list`.
|
||||
You may also tab-complete available Python
|
||||
versions if your pyenv installation is properly configured.

|
||||
|
||||
### Using `python-build` standalone
|
||||
|
||||
If you have installed python-build as a standalone program, you can use
|
||||
the `python-build` command to compile and install Python versions into
|
||||
specific locations.

If you have installed python-build as a standalone program, you can use the
|

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Run the `python-build` command with the exact name of the version you
|
||||
want to install and the full path where you want to install it. For
|
||||
example,
|
||||
Run the `python-build` command with the exact name of the version you want to

### Custom definitions
|
||||
|
||||
Both `pyenv install` and `python-build` accept a path to a custom
|
||||
definition file in place of a version name. Custom definitions let you
|
||||
develop and install versions of Python that are not yet supported by
|

python-build.

|

process.
|
||||
You can set certain environment variables to control the build process.
|
||||
|
||||
* `TMPDIR` sets the location where python-build stores temporary files.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_BUILD_PATH` sets the location in which sources are
|
||||
downloaded and built. By default, this is a subdirectory of
|
||||
`TMPDIR`.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_CACHE_PATH`, if set, specifies a directory to use for
|
||||
caching downloaded package files.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_MIRROR_URL` overrides the default mirror URL root to one
|
||||
of your choosing.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_SKIP_MIRROR`, if set, forces python-build to download
|
||||
packages from their original source URLs instead of using a mirror.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_BUILD_PATH` sets the location in which sources are downloaded and
|
||||
built. By default, this is a subdirectory of `TMPDIR`.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_CACHE_PATH`, if set, specifies a directory to use for caching
|
||||
downloaded package files.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_MIRROR_URL` overrides the default mirror URL root to one of your
|
||||
choosing.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_SKIP_MIRROR`, if set, forces python-build to download packages from
|
||||
their original source URLs instead of using a mirror.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_ROOT` overrides the default location from where build definitions
|
||||
in `share/python-build/` are looked up.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_BUILD_DEFINITIONS` can be a list of colon-separated paths that get
|
||||
additionally searched when looking up build definitions.
|
||||
* `CC` sets the path to the C compiler.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_CFLAGS` lets you pass additional options to the default `CFLAGS`. Use
|
||||
this to override, for instance, the `-O3` option.
|
||||
* `CONFIGURE_OPTS` lets you pass additional options to `./configure`.
|
||||
* `MAKE` lets you override the command to use for `make`. Useful for
|
||||
specifying GNU make (`gmake`) on some systems.
|
||||
* `MAKE_OPTS` (or `MAKEOPTS`) lets you pass additional options to
|
||||
`make`.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS` and `PYTHON_MAKE_OPTS` allow you to specify
|
||||
configure and make options for buildling CPython. These variables will
|
||||
be passed to Python only, not any dependent packages (e.g. libyaml).
|
||||
* `MAKE` lets you override the command to use for `make`. Useful for specifying
|
||||
GNU make (`gmake`) on some systems.
|
||||
* `MAKE_OPTS` (or `MAKEOPTS`) lets you pass additional options to `make`.
|
||||
* `MAKE_INSTALL_OPTS` lets you pass additional options to `make install`.
|
||||
* `PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS` and `PYTHON_MAKE_OPTS` and `PYTHON_MAKE_INSTALL_OPTS` allow
|
||||
you to specify configure and make options for buildling CPython. These variables
|
||||
will be passed to Python only, not any dependent packages (e.g. libyaml).

||||
|
||||
### Building as `--enable-shared`
|
||||
### Applying patches to Python before compiling
|
||||
|
||||
Both `pyenv install` and `python-build` support the `--patch` (`-p`) flag that
|
||||
signals that a patch from stdin should be applied to Python, Jython or PyPy
|
||||
source code before the `./configure` and compilation steps.
|
||||
|
||||
Example usage:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# applying a single patch
|
||||
$ pyenv install --patch 2.7.10 < /path/to/python.patch
|
||||
|
||||
# applying a patch from HTTP
|
||||
$ pyenv install --patch 2.7.10 < <(curl -sSL http://git.io/python.patch)
|
||||
|
||||
# applying multiple patches
|
||||
$ cat fix1.patch fix2.patch | pyenv install --patch 2.7.10
|
||||
```

||||
|
||||

### Building with `--enable-shared`

### Checksum verification
|
||||
|
||||
If you have the `shasum`, `openssl`, or `sha256sum` tool installed,
|
||||
python-build will automatically verify the SHA2 checksum of each
|
||||
downloaded package before installing it.

Checksums are optional and specified as anchors on the package URL in

each definition. (All bundled definitions include checksums.)

|
||||
|
||||
### Package download mirrors
|
||||
|
||||
python-build will first attempt to download package files from a mirror
|
||||
hosted on Amazon CloudFront. If a package is not available on the
|
||||
mirror, if the mirror is down, or if the download is corrupt,
|
||||
python-build will fall back to the official URL specified in the
|
||||
defintion file.

|
||||
is down, or if the download is corrupt, python-build will fall back to the
|
||||
official URL specified in the defintion file.
|
||||
|
||||
You can point python-build to another mirror by specifying the
|
||||
`PYTHON_BUILD_MIRROR_URL` environment variable--useful if you'd like to
|
||||
run your own local mirror, for example. Package mirror URLs are
|
||||
constructed by joining this variable with the SHA2 checksum of the
|
||||
package file.

|
||||
|
||||
If you don't have an SHA2 program installed, python-build will skip the
|
||||
download mirror and use official URLs instead. You can force
|
||||
python-build to bypass the mirror by setting the
|

### Package download caching
|
||||
|
||||
You can instruct python-build to keep a local cache of downloaded
|
||||
package files by setting the `PYTHON_BUILD_CACHE_PATH` environment
|
||||
variable. When set, package files will be kept in this directory after
|
||||
the first successful download and reused by subsequent invocations of
|
||||
`python-build` and `pyenv install`.

|

|

|
||||
|
||||
### Keeping the build directory after installation
|
||||
|
||||
Both `python-build` and `pyenv install` accept the `-k` or `--keep`
|
||||
flag, which tells python-build to keep the downloaded source after
|
||||
installation. This can be useful if you need to use `gdb` and
|
||||
`memprof` with Python.
