Document support for installing python scripts

Open dnicolodi opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

How can I install python scripts with meson-python replacing setuptool's console_scripts enty_point or [project.scripts] in pyproject.toml? If there is a vision of how this should look like I'm happy to try to work on the support.

Hi, project.scripts (from PEP 621) is supported, so you may use it as you would on any other Python build backend (example: https://peps.python.org/pep-0621/#example). Alternatively, if you need to install any other scripts, executables in Meson are included in the package as scripts.

Great. From the documentation it is not evident which features of PEP621 are supported.

Noted. Thanks!
