DH-VIRTUALENV(1) DebHelper DH-VIRTUALENV(1)

NAME

dh-virtualenv - deploy a Python package in a self-contained virtualenv

SYNOPSIS

dh_virtualenv [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

dh-virtualenv is a tool that aims to combine Debian packaging with self-contained virtualenv based Python deployments. To do this, the package extends debhelper's sequence by providing a new command in sequence, dh_virtualenv, which effectively replaces following commands from the sequence:
dh_auto_install
dh_python2
dh_pycentral
dh_pysupport



In the sequence the dh_virtualenv is inserted right after dh_perl.

OPTIONS

-p PACKAGE, --package=PACKAGE
Act on the package named PACKAGE
-N PACKAGE, --no-package=PACKAGE
Do not act on the specified PACKAGE
-v, --verbose
Turn on verbose mode.
--extra-index-url
Pass extra index URL to pip
--preinstall=PACKAGE
Preinstall a PACKAGE before running pip.
--pypi-url
