python-config-rs

The python-config-rs crate gives you the same insight as the python-config script bundled with your Python distribution. The crate is intended for build scripts that need

• the Python include directories
• flags for building / linking Python
• ABI flags used when building your Python installation
• any Python information already provided by python-config

```rust use python_config::PythonConfig;

let cfg = PythonConfig::new(); // Python 3

// Print include directories println!("Includes: {}", cfg.includes().unwrap()); // Print installation prefix println!("Installation prefix: {}", cfg.prefix().unwrap()); ```

This is Python 3 by default, but we provide a Python 2 interface. Note that the Python 2 interface has gone through significantly less testing.

Based on this library, we also provide a reimplementation of python3-config. Our automated tests show equivalence between our implementation and the normal python3-config script. The binary is Python 3 only.
