pip-custom-platform
pip+wheel wrapper which allows you to choose a custom platform name for building, downloading, and installing wheels.
This package assumes you're running your own PyPI server and would like support for wheels on named platforms that would otherwise be considered equivalent by the wheel infrastructure (for example not all linux_x86_64 are created equal).
Default platform names
By default, pip-custom-platform guesses a platform name for you based on the
distro module for Linux, and uses the default platform name on Windows, OS
X, or other systems. Some examples:
| Platform | Default Platform Name |
|---|---|
| Ubuntu Trusty (14.04) | linux_ubuntu_14_04_x86_64 |
| Debian Jessie (8) | linux_debian_8_x86_64 |
| CentOS 7 | linux_centos_7_x86_64 |
| Fedora 22 | linux_fedora_22_x86_64 |
| Red Hat 7 | linux_rhel_7_x86_64 |
| openSUSE 13.2 | linux_opensuse_13_x86_64 |
You can choose your own platform name by passing --platform my_platform on
the command line.
