Feature Request: Build for Linux aarch64/arm64 on PyPI

[marty-sullivan]

Hello,

There is currently no way to install this on linux running arm64 via PyPI. I'd like to request this additional build given there are many arm-based linux systems now. Or, perhaps at least adding the source package to PyPI so that it can be built from source via pip.

Thanks

EDIT: I did confirm I can build from source by doing pip install git+https://github.com/letmaik/pyvirtualcam.git so even just making sure that the source tar.gz is available as an option on PyPI is sufficient.

That should be possible, care to submit a PR? You can get inspiration from here: https://github.com/letmaik/rawpy/blob/d368d56f2eb9e7bd1f4c2f783bc4873d177e321b/.github/workflows/ci.yml#L73

This would be really a valuable PR. Can anybody do this?

In the meantime, how would I create this on my own?

@marty-sullivan Do you want to take this on? Shouldn't be much effort.

@letmaik I'm actually no longer using this module, so probably not going to find time to prioritize that, but I might have time eventually.

@agilebean There should be a pretty standard template somewhere for adding the .tar.gz just to have pip install from source as a fallback option though if you wanted to look into this. Otherwise, pip install git+https://github.com/letmaik/pyvirtualcam.git is a workaround.

@marty-sullivan thanks a lot. i tried pip install git+<repo> and it worked.
