NAME
python-module —
lang/python port module
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents the behavior of setting
MODULE=lang/python in the
ports(7) tree.
Sets MODPY_VERSION,
MODPY_BIN, MODPY_INCDIR,
MODPY_LIBDIR, MODPY_SITEPKG,
MODPY_SETUP, MODPY_TEST_DIR,
MODPY_TEST_LOCALE,
MODPY_WANTLIB,
MODPY_LIB_DEPENDS,
MODPY_RUN_DEPENDS,
MODPY_TEST_DEPENDS,
MODPY_BUILD_DEPENDS, and
MODPY_ADJ_FILES. Appends to
RUN_DEPENDS unless
MODPY_RUNDEP is set to No. Appends to
BUILD_DEPENDS unless
MODPY_BUILDDEP is set to No or
NO_BUILD is set to Yes. Appends to
TEST_DEPENDS if MODPY_PYTEST
is set to Yes unless MODPY_TESTDEP is set to No.
Appends MODPY_TEST_LOCALE to
TEST_ENV. Changes to the directory specified in
MODPY_TEST_DIR, by default WRKSRC, before running
tests. MODPY_VERSION is the default version used by
all python modules. Ports which use the setuptools module should set
MODPY_SETUPTOOLS to Yes. Ports which use the pytest
module should set MODPY_PYTEST to Yes. Arguments can
be passed to pytest during test with
MODPY_PYTEST_ARGS. All ports that generate egg-info
files should set MODPY_EGG_VERSION to the version
string used by the
setup()
function in the port's setup.py. Arguments can be
passed to setup.py during configure with
MODPY_SETUP_ARGS. Extra arguments to the build and
install commands can be passed via
MODPY_DISTUTILS_BUILDARGS and
MODPY_DISTUTILS_INSTALLARGS. If any files have a
python shebang line which needs to be replaced using MODPY_BIN, list them in
MODPY_ADJ_FILES. These are prefixed with WRKSRC and
replaced automatically at the end of pre-configure.
Also affects CATEGORIES,
MAKE_ENV, CONFIGURE_ENV, and
SUBST_VARS. May affect the
test target. If MODPY_PI is
set to Yes it will set HOMEPAGE and
MASTER_SITES. The subdirectory can be overridden
with MODPY_PI_DIR.
Python 2.x places .pyc files in the same directory as the
associated .py file. Python 3.x places these in a separate __pycache__
directory and uses an additional suffix. In some cases, an ABI tag is also
used for names of compiled extensions. The python module defines variables
to allow a single PLIST to be used for both versions. Generate or update the
PLIST using the python3 FLAVOR, then edit it to
prefix any lines creating MODPY_PYCACHE directories
with MODPY_COMMENT. As python2 and python3 packages
should permit being installed together, it may be necessary to suffix names
of common binaries or directories, or split common files into a subpackage.
If updating the PLIST without using the python3 flavor, take care not to
remove ${MODPY_PYCACHE}, ${MODPY_PYC_MAGIC_TAG}, or ${MODPY_ABI_TAG}
variables from the PLIST.
