``bdist``
^^^^^^^^^
.. note::
If you are running on GNU/Linux, then you cannot upload any binary wheels.
First, build the wheels locally with:
.. code-block:: bash
$ python setup.py bdist_wheel
Just like the ``sdist``, we need to ``cd`` into a clean directory and use a
clean virtualenv. Then, test that the wheel was built successfully with:
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install <zipline_root>/dist/<wheel_name>
$ python -c 'import zipline;print(zipline.__version__)'
The version number should be the same as the version you are releasing.
We must repeat this process for both python 2 and 3.
Once you have tested the package, it can be uploaded to PyPI with:
.. code-block:: bash
$ python setup.py bdist_wheel upload
Because zipline now supports multiple versions of numpy, we're not building
binary wheels, since they are not tagged with the version of numpy with which
they were compiled.
