A python package on the way?

[pissalou]

Hello Jean-Michaël,
I noticed the recent addition of python bindings to the project. Is your intention to also build python packages in github actions and publish them to pypi.org? I think that would be of great value and would happily look into making a workflow for it if you agree.

Hello ! Yes, and help for the GH workflow especially for submitting to PyPI would be amazing!

I'm currently adding a GH workflow in #140

Hello Jean-Michael, I have tried to import the pyd file generated by the workflow on windows 10 but it is failing:
`Python 3.13.2 (tags/v3.13.2:4f8bb39, Feb 4 2025, 15:23:48) [MSC v.1942 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import os
import dlltracer
os.add_dll_directory('C:\Windows\System32')
<AddedDllDirectory('C:\Windows\System32')>
with dlltracer.Trace(out=sys.stdout):
... import pylibremidi

I suspect it is because the project is compile with --config Debug and I do not have the vc++ debug DLLs, I will try again with the --config flipped to Release to confirm this hypothesis.

this could definitely be a cause indeed, the MSVC toolchain does not support mixing debug and release DLLs
