Author: Piotr Ożarowski, 2012-2013

SYNOPSIS

py3compile [-V [X.Y][-][A.B]] DIR_OR_FILE [-X REGEXPR]

pycompile -p PACKAGE

DESCRIPTION

Wrapper around Python standard library's py_compile module to byte-compile Python 3 files.

OPTIONS

--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f, --force force rebuild of byte-code files even if timestamps are up-to-date
-O byte-compile to .pyo files
-q, --quiet be quiet
-v, --verbose turn verbose mode on
-p PACKAGE, --package=PACKAGE
 specify Debian package name whose files should be bytecompiled
-V VRANGE

force private modules to be bytecompiled with Python 3 version from given range, regardless of the default Python 3 version in the system. If there are no other options, bytecompile all public modules for installed Python 3 versions that match given range. VERSION_RANGE examples:

  • 3.1 version 3.1 only,
  • 3.1- version 3.1 or newer,
  • 3.1-3.3 version 3.1 or 3.2,
  • -4.0 all supported 3.X versions
-X REGEXPR, --exclude=REGEXPR
 exclude items that match given REGEXPR. You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to exclude
