Project description

BuildPython is a python library to download and build a specified version of python into a specified directory.

That’s it.

The code is basically derived from pyenv but provides a bit of a nicer wrapper.

It was built for use with http://hitchtest.com/ so that you can test the same code with multiple versions of python.

Install:

$ pip install python-build

Use in python:

>>> import python_build
>>> python_build.python_build("2.7.3", "/home/user/projectdirectory/py273")

Use outside of python:

$ python-build 2.7.3 /home/user/projectdirectory/py273

Help:

$ python-build --help
