Release a src dist

Open sscherfke opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

it would be cool if you could also upload a source dist with the next release. This would make re-packaging (e.g., for Conda or Linux distros) a lot easier. :-)

If it helps, happy to do so :)

JFYI, building from source requires Rust on the target machine.

Could you please explain what you mean by repackaging? I'm not familiar with the case when wheels aren't enough.

I mean "repackaging" in the sense of "build a binary package in a different format (conda) from source and building it with a defined version of rust in a defined environment".

I was able to build dtparse from source (the source package from the github release page) using setuptools-rust (and rust), so building an sdist should be relatively easy. :)
