Instructions to use the docker and make wheels without Travis

[AbdealiLoKo]

I saw https://github.com/pypa/python-manylinux-demo which is neat.
But it would also be nice to have instructions that I can simply run on my computer to create the wheels.

Something like:

Step 1: Install docker from the instructions at https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/
Step 2: Pull the docker image: docker pull quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64 (For 64bit)
And so on ...

The Travis build example at https://github.com/pypa/python-manylinux-demo isn't as helpful in case I want to do it locally.

From what I can see:

1. Pull docker image for your architecture

    docker pull quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64
    # or docker pull quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_i686
   

[techtonik]

2. Run it

   docker run -it -v $(pwd):/io quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64

3. Then in your wheelhouse/ directory there will be wheel

Here's my version, expanding on @techtonik's a bit:

docker run -it -v $(pwd):/io quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64
# following, roughly, https://github.com/pypa/python-manylinux-demo/blob/master/travis/build-wheels.sh
PYBIN=/opt/python/cp36-cp36m/bin
for whl in wheelhouse/*.whl; do
    auditwheel repair "$whl" -w /io/wheelhouse/
done
cp wheelhouse/*.whl /io/wheelhouse/

Lots of wheels, including the desired one, will be in $(pwd)/wheelhouse.

I've followed the instructions so far:

docker pull quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64
docker run -it -v $(pwd):/io quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64

But I don't see a wheelhouse directory that you guys seem to have when I'm in the container. Is there something I need to do first to create the directory?

[riddell-stan]

Creating a wheelhouse directory in your working directory might do the trick.

But the script you posted above expects *.whl files to already exist in /wheelhouse when logging into the Docker container:

for whl in wheelhouse/*.whl; do
    auditwheel repair "$whl" -w /io/wheelhouse/
done

How do those files get created?

[gfairchild]

Ok, I think I figured it out. From https://github.com/pypa/python-manylinux-demo/blob/master/travis/build-wheels.sh, this is key:

for PYBIN in /opt/python/*/bin; do
    "${PYBIN}/pip" wheel /io/ -w wheelhouse/
done

This process is still unclear to me. I have a repository of Python code I need to build, I'm doing a
docker run -it -v $(pwd):/io quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64

but I don't see anything inside /io. What am I missing?

[matthew-brett]

I think you'll find that starts up the container only for it close immediately. I think you want something like this:

docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/io quay.io/pypa/manylinux1_x86_64 /bin/bash

This will drop you into the container, in the bash shell, and you will be able to see /io.

[cdietschrun]

I've run that and other flavors, and io is still empty.

[cdietschrun]

Both on x86_64 and i686 versions of the container

[cdietschrun]

To be explicit, I'm running on Powershell in Windows and have tried with pwd:/io, C:\Users\me\source\repo:/io, /c/Users/me/source/repo etc and all aren't populating io for me

[cdietschrun]

Looks like it's just some Windows issue on my setup with -v

[matthew-brett]

Ah - sorry - I haven't tried to use Linux containers on Windows.
