Packaging

Alloconda provides a PEP 517 build backend so standard tooling can build wheels for your extension.

Build backend setup

Add this to pyproject.toml:

[build-system]
requires = ["alloconda"]
build-backend = "alloconda.build_backend"

Building wheels

You can either use the alloconda CLI via uvx:

uvx alloconda wheel

Or use standard PEP 517 tooling, such as uv build --package your-project. The build backend reads pyproject.toml metadata and tool.alloconda settings.

For cross-compilation and multi-target builds, prefer the CLI (wheel / wheel-all) so you can control the target matrix directly.

Release builds are the default. Use --config-settings debug=true for Debug builds, or set optimize in tool.alloconda to override release optimization.

Publishing

Alloconda does not ship a publish command. Use twine to upload built wheels.
