Python wheels manylinux build - GitHub Action

GitHub release License Open issues Merged PRs GitHub Stars GitHub Forks

Build manylinux wheels for a (Cython) Python package.

This action uses the manylinux containers to build manylinux wheels for a (Cython) Python package. The wheels are placed in a new directory <package-path>/dist and can be uploaded to PyPI in the next step of your workflow.

This is a relatively simple and straightforward action. For more complicated use cases, check out PyPA/cibuildwheel.

Usage

Example

Minimal:

uses: RalfG/[email protected]
with:
  python-versions: 'cp310-cp310 cp311-cp311'

Using all arguments:

uses: RalfG/[email protected]_x86_64
with:
  python-versions: 'cp310-cp310 cp311-cp311'
  build-requirements: 'cython numpy'
  system-packages: 'lrzip-devel zlib-devel'
  pre-build-command: 'sh pre-build-script.sh'
  package-path: 'my_project'
  pip-wheel-args: '-w ./dist --no-deps'

See full_workflow_example.yml for a complete example that includes linting and uploading to PyPI.

Inputs

name description required default example(s)
python-versions Python version tags for which to build (PEP 425 tags) wheels, as described in the manylinux image documentation, space-separated required 'cp37-cp37m cp38-cp38 cp39-cp39 cp310-cp310 cp311-cp311' 'cp310-cp310 cp311-cp311'
build-requirements Python (pip) packages required at build time, space-separated optional '' 'cython' or 'cython==0.29.14'
system-packages System (yum) packages required at build time, space-separated optional '' 'lrzip-devel zlib-devel'
pre-build-command Command to run before build, e.g. the execution of a script to perform additional build-environment setup optional '' 'sh pre-build-script.sh'
package-path Path to python package to build (e.g. where setup.py file is located), relative to repository root optional '' 'my_project'
pip-wheel-args Extra extra arguments to pass to the pip wheel command (see pip documentation), passed paths are relative to package-path optional '-w ./dist --no-deps' '-w ./wheelhouse --no-deps --pre'

Output

The action creates wheels, by default in the <package-path>/dist directory. The output path can be modified in the pip-wheel-args option with the -w argument. Be sure to upload only the *-manylinux*.whl wheels, as the non-audited (e.g. linux_x86_64) wheels are not accepted by PyPI.

Using a different manylinux container

The manylinux2014_x86_64 container is used by default. To use another manylinux container, append -<container-name> to the reference. For example: RalfG/[email protected]_aarch64 instead of RalfG/[email protected].
