How to create Python egg file

by

You are reading the wrong documentation. You want this: https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#develop-deploy-the-project-source-in-development-mode

  1. Creating setup.py is covered in the distutils documentation in Python’s standard library documentation here. The main difference (for python eggs) is you import setup from setuptools, not distutils.

  2. Yep. That should be right.

  3. I don’t think so. pyc files can be version and platform dependent. You might be able to open the egg (they should just be zip files) and delete .py files leaving .pyc files, but it wouldn’t be recommended.

  4. I’m not sure. That might be “Development Mode”. Or are you looking for some “py2exe” or “py2app” mode?
