Amazon S3 wheelhouse generator.

Wheels are the latest standard in distributing binary for Python. Wheels cut down scipy's installation time from 15 minutes to 15 seconds. Learn more about wheels.

Generate wheels for all listed PACKAGEs and their dependencies, then upload them to Amazon S3 BUCKET:

$ mkwheelhouse BUCKET [PACKAGE...]

Then install with pip like usual, but preferring generated wheels:

$ pip install --find-links BUCKET/index.html PACKAGE

You can also build a wheelhouse in an S3 subdirectory by specifying the full S3 path:

$ mkwheelhouse s3://BUCKET/SUB/DIRECTORY PACKAGE

• -h, --help

  Print usage information and exit.

• -r, --requirement REQUIREMENTS_FILE

  Also include packages (and their dependencies) from the pip requirements file REQUIREMENTS_FILE. Can be specified multiple times and combined with positional PACKAGE arguments.

• -e, --exclude WHEEL_FILENAME:

  Don't upload built wheel with filename WHEEL_FILENAME. Note this is the final wheel filename, like argparse-1.3.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl, not the bare package name.

  Specifying an exclusion will not remove pre-existing built wheels from S3; you'll have to remove those wheels from the bucket manually.

• Python 2 and 3
• Set a bucket policy to make all objects publicly accessible or Pip won't be able to download wheels from your wheelhouse.
