Creating long-term Cython projects can be laborious, especially when it comes to writing a setup.py file with NumPy support. This repository hosts a general-purpose setup.py file that allows arbitrary project structures and hierarchies, as well as a small code template. It allows you to:

• Compile your code to a library
• Mix python and cython files in the same project
• C and C++ support
• Support NumPy
• Support increasingly complex project structure without having to change the setup.py file

Follow the following simple steps:

• Download this template
• Delete the content of myawesomelib folder
• Rename it with the name of your project
• Open setup.py and set SOURCE_FOLDER to the name of your project
• If you wish to use SIMD instructions within your project, place these header files wherever you want in your source folder
• Enjoy

Install the package with:

make build

or:

python setup.py install

Execute it with:

import numpy as np

# This is a C extension generated with Cython
from myawesomelib.array.math import sigmoid, logit

arr = np.random.rand(1000)
logit(sigmoid(arr))

# This is a python module
from myawesomelib.wrapper import wrapped_sigmoid, wrapped_logit

wrapped_logit(wrapped_sigmoid(arr))
