This project uses cibuildwheel to build the OGDF library into a ready-to-use python package (called wheel) installable via pip install ogdf-wheel. The wheel contains both debug and release builds of the OGDF. It is mainly intended to be used with ogdf-python when you don't want to build the OGDF yourself or use a C++ package manager.

Publishing new Releases

The CI does neither automatically build new OGDF versions nor directly publishes the results to PyPi. To publish a new version, perform the following steps:

• Update the /ogdf/ submodule in this repo to point to the latest release of the OGDF.
• Update the version number in pyproject.toml.
• Commit and push your changes to GitHub.
• Wait for the CI there to finish.
• Download the resulting .whl files.
• Use twine to upload the files to PyPi, see also the ogdf-python release process.

Building a clean sdist locally

cd /tmp
git clone /path/to/ogdf-wheel
cd /tmp/ogdf-wheel
git submodule update --init --recursive
python -m build --sdist
mv dist/ogdf_wheel-*.tar.gz /path/to/ogdf-wheel/dist
