using `data_files` dict prefixed with `SITE_PACKAGES = os.path.join(get_python_lib(), "keystone")` is not portable, see #235 and #297 for details. Regular setup configuration does not work, e.g., specifying `package_data` etc, since that only affects `sdist`. The fix is a hack: customize `install_lib` to explicitly copy the file into keystone install dir.
This documentation explains how to install Python binding for Keystone from source.
-
Install the core engine as dependency
Follow README.md in the root directory to compile & install the core.
-
To install pure Python binding on *nix, run the command below in the Python bindings directory:
$ sudo make install
To install Python3 binding package, run the command below: (Note: this requires python3 installed in your machine)
$ sudo make install3
For example how to use Keystone API, see sample.py
- To install Python binding on Windows:
Run the following command in command prompt:
C:\> C:\location_to_python\python.exe setup.py install
Next, copy all the DLL files from the 'Core engine for Windows' package available on the same Keystone download page and paste it in the path:
C:\location_to_python\Lib\site-packages\keystone\
