Building with setuptools
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
For projects on PyPI, building with setuptools is the way to go. Sylvain Corlay
|
|
has kindly provided an example project which shows how to set up everything,
|
|
including automatic generation of documentation using Sphinx. Please refer to
|
|
the [pbtest]_ repository.

Building with CMake
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
For C++ codebases that already have an existing CMake-based build system, the
|
|
following snippet should be a good starting point to create bindings across
|
|
platforms. It assumes that the code is located in a file named
|
|
:file:`example.cpp`, and that the pybind11 repository is located in a
|
|
subdirectory named :file:`pybind11`.
