Paul Schreiber | c086685 | 2017-02-20 08:08:59 -0500 | [diff] [blame] | 55 | On Unix, Linux, BSD, macOS, and Cygwin:: |
Benjamin Peterson | 1da43e5 | 2009-06-26 13:21:52 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 56 | |
| 57 | ./configure |
| 58 | make |

| 60 | sudo make install |

Suriyaa ✌️️ | 7e3fb40 | 2019-01-02 02:57:42 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 62 | This will install Python as ``python3``. |
Benjamin Peterson | 1da43e5 | 2009-06-26 13:21:52 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 63 | |
Zachary Ware | d50f188 | 2017-02-13 22:01:03 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 64 | You can pass many options to the configure script; run ``./configure --help`` |
Miss Islington (bot) | 80f8532 | 2019-10-14 05:35:28 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 65 | to find out more. On macOS case-insensitive file systems and on Cygwin, |
| 66 | the executable is called ``python.exe``; elsewhere it's just ``python``. |

Miss Islington (bot) | 80f8532 | 2019-10-14 05:35:28 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 68 | Building a complete Python installation requires the use of various |
| 69 | additional third-party libraries, depending on your build platform and |
| 70 | configure options. Not all standard library modules are buildable or |
| 71 | useable on all platforms. Refer to the |
| 72 | `Install dependencies <https://devguide.python.org/setup/#install-dependencies>`_ |
| 73 | section of the `Developer Guide`_ for current detailed information on |
| 74 | dependencies for various Linux distributions and macOS. |

Larry Hastings | f92f6c8 | 2015-09-12 17:28:39 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 83 | If you wish, you can create a subdirectory and invoke configure from there. |
Victor Stinner | d783b01 | 2017-02-11 02:21:38 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 84 | For example:: |
Benjamin Peterson | 1da43e5 | 2009-06-26 13:21:52 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 85 | |
| 86 | mkdir debug |
| 87 | cd debug |
| 88 | ../configure --with-pydebug |
| 89 | make |
| 90 | make test |
| 91 | |
Zachary Ware | d50f188 | 2017-02-13 22:01:03 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 92 | (This will fail if you *also* built at the top-level directory. You should do |
Hossein Pourbozorg | 5f2b3b0 | 2019-05-02 12:47:55 +0430 | [diff] [blame] | 93 | a ``make clean`` at the top-level first.) |
Benjamin Peterson | 1da43e5 | 2009-06-26 13:21:52 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 94 | |
Zachary Ware | d50f188 | 2017-02-13 22:01:03 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 95 | To get an optimized build of Python, ``configure --enable-optimizations`` |
| 96 | before you run ``make``. This sets the default make targets up to enable |
| 97 | Profile Guided Optimization (PGO) and may be used to auto-enable Link Time |
| 98 | Optimization (LTO) on some platforms. For more details, see the sections |
| 99 | below. |

Gregory P. Smith | b87c1c9 | 2018-04-19 08:58:17 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 104 | PGO takes advantage of recent versions of the GCC or Clang compilers. If used, |
Gregory P. Smith | 93f9a8a | 2018-05-16 10:34:47 -0500 | [diff] [blame] | 105 | either via ``configure --enable-optimizations`` or by manually running |
| 106 | ``make profile-opt`` regardless of configure flags, the optimized build |
| 107 | process will perform the following steps: |
Brett Cannon | 7188a3e | 2015-09-18 15:13:44 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 108 | |
Gregory P. Smith | 93f9a8a | 2018-05-16 10:34:47 -0500 | [diff] [blame] | 109 | The entire Python directory is cleaned of temporary files that may have |
| 110 | resulted from a previous compilation. |
Brett Cannon | 7188a3e | 2015-09-18 15:13:44 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 111 | |
Gregory P. Smith | 93f9a8a | 2018-05-16 10:34:47 -0500 | [diff] [blame] | 112 | An instrumented version of the interpreter is built, using suitable compiler |
| 113 | flags for each flavour. Note that this is just an intermediary step. The |
| 114 | binary resulting from this step is not good for real life workloads as it has |
| 115 | profiling instructions embedded inside. |
Brett Cannon | 7188a3e | 2015-09-18 15:13:44 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 116 | |
Gregory P. Smith | 93f9a8a | 2018-05-16 10:34:47 -0500 | [diff] [blame] | 117 | After the instrumented interpreter is built, the Makefile will run a training |
| 118 | workload. This is necessary in order to profile the interpreter execution. |
| 119 | Note also that any output, both stdout and stderr, that may appear at this step |
| 120 | is suppressed. |
Brett Cannon | 7188a3e | 2015-09-18 15:13:44 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 121 | |
Gregory P. Smith | 93f9a8a | 2018-05-16 10:34:47 -0500 | [diff] [blame] | 122 | The final step is to build the actual interpreter, using the information |
| 123 | collected from the instrumented one. The end result will be a Python binary |
| 124 | that is optimized; suitable for distribution or production installation. |

| 133 | libraries for additional performance gains. |

| 176 | |
Zachary Ware | d50f188 | 2017-02-13 22:01:03 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 177 | To test the interpreter, type ``make test`` in the top-level directory. The |
| 178 | test set produces some output. You can generally ignore the messages about |
| 179 | skipped tests due to optional features which can't be imported. If a message |
| 180 | is printed about a failed test or a traceback or core dump is produced, |
| 181 | something is wrong. |
Benjamin Peterson | ad3d5c2 | 2009-02-26 03:38:59 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 182 | |
| 183 | By default, tests are prevented from overusing resources like disk space and |
Victor Stinner | d783b01 | 2017-02-11 02:21:38 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 184 | memory. To enable these tests, run ``make testall``. |

| 199 | ---------------------------- |
| 200 | |
| 201 | On Unix and Mac systems if you intend to install multiple versions of Python |
Zachary Ware | d50f188 | 2017-02-13 22:01:03 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 202 | using the same installation prefix (``--prefix`` argument to the configure |
| 203 | script) you must take care that your primary python executable is not |
| 204 | overwritten by the installation of a different version. All files and |
| 205 | directories installed using ``make altinstall`` contain the major and minor |
| 206 | version and can thus live side-by-side. ``make install`` also creates |
| 207 | ``${prefix}/bin/python3`` which refers to ``${prefix}/bin/pythonX.Y``. If you |
| 208 | intend to install multiple versions using the same prefix you must decide which |
| 209 | version (if any) is your "primary" version. Install that version using ``make |
| 210 | install``. Install all other versions using ``make altinstall``. |

Ned Deily | 5489bda | 2018-01-31 17:44:09 -0500 | [diff] [blame] | 212 | For example, if you want to install Python 2.7, 3.6, and 3.8 with 3.8 being the |
| 213 | primary version, you would execute ``make install`` in your 3.8 build directory |
Victor Stinner | d783b01 | 2017-02-11 02:21:38 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 214 | and ``make altinstall`` in the others. |
