sip-sdist(1)

🎀 NAME 🎀

sip-sdist — build an sdist for the sip project 🦋

(and yes bestie, this is a section 1 page, aka the General Commands Manual — that's just where it lives, no biggie 💖)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

sip-sdist [options]

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here's the tea 🫖 — sip-sdist creates an sdist (that's a source distribution, iykyk) which can be uploaded to PyPI. That's it. That's the whole job. It's giving "packaging era" and honestly? Iconic. 👑

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -h, --help — pops up a help message for you. Ask and you shall receive, babe. 🙈
• -V, --version — shows you the SIP version number. Number reveal moment. ✨
• --abi-version M[.N] — sets the version number of the ABI of the sip module you're targeting, and that version is M.N. By default it uses the latest major version. And if you don't give it a minor version? It just grabs the latest minor version of that major version instead. So flexible, so forgiving, we love a low-maintenance flag. 💜
• --deprecations-are-errors — with this on, using any deprecated feature gets treated as an error instead of a warning. Not a gentle lil nudge — a full-on 💀 moment. Choose your chaos wisely.
• --name NAME — NAME gets used instead of the PyPI project name found in the pyproject.toml file when naming the sdist file. Basically: rename the file without touching the project name. Main character energy, but for filenames. 🎀

fr fr, --abi-version is the only one with a default worth remembering — everything else just does what it says on the tin. No cap. 🧚

okay that's the whole page bestie, go forth and build that sdist 💖✨

later babes 🫶 — this was sip-sdist(1), a General Commands Manual page, sitting pretty in section 1 of the manual set. mwah. 💅
