Cythonize one step faster

cythonizer.py is a script that will attempt to automatically convert one or more .py and .pyx files into the corresponding compiled .pyd | .so binary modules files. Example:

$ python cythonizer.py myext.pyx 

pip install cythonizer will automatically create an executable script in your Scripts/ folder, so you should be able to simply:

$ cythonizer myext.py 

or even:

$ cythonizer *.pyx 

You can type:

$ cythonizer -h 

to obtain the following CLI:

usage: cythonizer.py [-h] [--annotation] [--numpy-includes] [--debugmode] filenames [filenames ...] positional arguments: filenames .py and .pyx files only optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --annotation (default: False) --numpy-includes (default: False) --debugmode (default: False) 

• --annotation will create the HTML Cython annotation file.
• --numpy-includes will add the numpy headers to the build command.
• Compiler flags -O2 -march=native are automatically passed to the compiler.
