As discussed in #269 (comment), I suggest to use PyPI as one route of distributing
airbinaries. Amongst others, it would be helpful for implementing an official pre-commit hook.I gave it a try, and it turns out it is actually quite simple to build python wheels for rust projects using the maturin build backend. A simple
pyproject.tomlfile is enough.To test, simply run
from a directory that has this PR checked out and it will compile the project and execute the air from the python package.
Using
the wheels can be compiled that could be distributed via PyPI.
This PR is meant as a proof-of-concept. If you are interested, I can also help setting up a github action for PyPI publishing.
