Access to Python's configuration information.
expand_makefile_vars(s, vars)
Expand Makefile-style variables -- "${foo}" or "$(foo)" -- in
'string' according to 'vars' (a dictionary mapping variable names to
values). Variables not present in 'vars' are silently expanded to the
empty string. The variable values in 'vars' should not contain further
variable expansions; if 'vars' is the output of 'parse_makefile()',
you're fine. Returns a variable-expanded version of 's'.
get_config_h_filename() Return the path of pyconfig.h.
get_config_var(name)
Return the value of a single variable using the dictionary returned by
'get_config_vars()'.
Equivalent to get_config_vars().get(name)
get_config_vars(*args)
With no arguments, return a dictionary of all configuration
variables relevant for the current platform.
On Unix, this means every variable defined in Python's installed Makefile;
On Windows it's a much smaller set.
With arguments, return a list of values that result from looking up
each argument in the configuration variable dictionary.
get_default_scheme()
get_makefile_filename() Return the path of the Makefile.
get_path(name, scheme='posix_prefix', vars=None, expand=True)
Return a path corresponding to the scheme.
``scheme`` is the install scheme name.
get_path_names() Return a tuple containing the paths names.
get_paths(scheme='posix_prefix', vars=None, expand=True)
Return a mapping containing an install scheme.
``scheme`` is the install scheme name. If not provided, it will
return the default scheme for the current platform.
get_platform()
Return a string that identifies the current platform.
This is used mainly to distinguish platform-specific build directories and
platform-specific built distributions. Typically includes the OS name and
version and the architecture (as supplied by 'os.uname()'), although the
exact information included depends on the OS; on Linux, the kernel version
isn't particularly important.
Examples of returned values:
linux-i586
linux-alpha (?)
solaris-2.6-sun4u
Windows will return one of:
win-amd64 (64bit Windows on AMD64 (aka x86_64, Intel64, EM64T, etc)
win32 (all others - specifically, sys.platform is returned)
For other non-POSIX platforms, currently just returns 'sys.platform'.
get_preferred_scheme(key)
get_python_version()
get_scheme_names() Return a tuple containing the schemes names.
is_python_build(check_home=False)
parse_config_h(fp, vars=None)
Parse a config.h-style file.
A dictionary containing name/value pairs is returned. If an
optional dictionary is passed in as the second argument, it is
used instead of a new dictionary.
realpath(filename, *, strict=False) Return the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path.
