pkgconfig 1.5.5

Description:

pkgconfig 1.5.5

pkgconfig is a Python module to interface with the pkg-config
command line tool for Python 3.3+.
It can be used to

find all pkg-config packages
>>> packages = pkgconfig.list_all()

check if a package exists
>>> pkgconfig.exists('glib-2.0')
True

check if a package meets certain version requirements
>>> pkgconfig.installed('glib-2.0', '< 2.26')
False

return the version
>>> pkgconfig.modversion('glib-2.0')
'2.56.3'

query CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
>>> pkgconfig.cflags('glib-2.0')
'-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include'

>>> pkgconfig.libs('glib-2.0')
'-lglib-2.0'

get all variables defined for a package:
>>> pkgconfig.variables('glib-2.0')
{u'exec_prefix': u'/usr'}

parse the output to build extensions with setup.py
>>> d = pkgconfig.parse('glib-2.0 gtk+-2.0')
>>> d['libraries']
[u'gtk+-2.0', u'glib-2.0']
or
>>> ext = Extension('foo', ['foo.c'])
>>> # sets extension attributes as needed
>>> pkgconfig.configure_extension(ext, 'glib-2.0 gtk+-2.0')
The pkgconfig.parse function returns a dictonary of lists.
The lists returned are accurate representations of the equivalent
pkg-config call’s result, both in content and order.


If pkg-config is not on the path, raises EnvironmentError.
