How to compile for binary package

This guide is for Python3. If you want to build the binary on Python2.7, change all of the "python3.5m" with "python2.7" or whatever version you have. You can have a full list of Python versions you have installed with the command ls /usr/include | grep python

  1. Copy main.py (or its content) as a .pyx file, and the other .py files with no changes. They have to be in the same folder with the .pyx file.

  2. Using cython (install it with sudo pip install cython): cython main.pyx --embed

  3. Compile the C file you got as output: gcc -Os -I /usr/include/python3.5m file.c -lpython3.5m -lpthread -lm -lutil -ldl This will output a file called a.out. If you want a different output name, you have to add the -o flag: gcc -Os -I /usr/include/python3.5m -o [/eventual/path/file_name] file.c -lpython3.5m -lpthread -lm -lutil -ldl

  4. Now, execute the file you got as output: ./[filename]
