Unofficial bindings between Python and LASzip made using pybind11.
The main purpose is for integration within laspy.
Building can be done using cmake or pip.
First pybind11
needs to be installed. You can install it via vcpkg
or conda
or other means.
By default a vendored version of LASZip is used, to use the system installed version
pass -DUSE_VENDORED_LASZIP=OFF
set -gx SKBUILD_CMAKE_ARGS "-DUSE_VENDORED_LASZIP=OFF"
pip wheel .
To help cmake find Laszip you may have to use -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/some/path/vcpg.cmake
if you used vcpkg to install laszip, or -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PARTH
(or -DCMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=...
and -DCMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=...
in rare cases).
As setup.py calls cmake the same options make need to be given:
set -gx SKBUILD_CMAKE_ARGS -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=...
pip install .
pip install build
python -m build . --sdist
