buildtools-python

User documentation

The buildtools-python module is an add-on to the buildtools module providing some Python-based build tools. They have been put in a separate module as it turns out that there can be interference with other Python tools that use a different version of Python, so a specialised buildtools-python module would be needed in that case. The reason is that the tools included in this module don't include proper wrapper scripts or don't use any other technique to properly set the search path to the right Python libraries without using PYTHONPATH which is not version-specific.

The module contains:

meson
SCons

Pre-installed modules (and EasyConfigs)

To access module help and find out for which stacks and partitions the module is installed, use module spider buildtools-python/<version>.
