Wheel packages for pysvn.
This is a setup script to build wheel packages for pysvn
. The author of pysvn
provides only setup files for Windows which makes it difficult to use pysvn
in modern Python environments like a virtual environment. The de-facto standard for Python packages is the wheel
format which gives you for instance the possibility to manage your packages with pip.
pysvn-wheeler
extracts the pysvn
setup file and creates a platform-specific wheel package out of it. It doesn't compile Subversion
, its dependencies and pysvn
from source. Because of that the content of a wheel and the corresponding setup file is equal.
pysvn-wheeler
can be used to install pysvn
with pip using an on-demand created wheel package. Additionally wheel packages for all common Python versions are provided at the release page.
On Windows platform pysvn
requires the installation of VC++ Redistributable. The version of the VC++ Redistributable package depends on the used Python version (see Python Wiki).
