NAME
Usage: - the Python compiler

SYNOPSIS
nuitka [--mode=compilation_mode] [--run] [options] main_module.py

DESCRIPTION

    Note: For general plugin help (they often have their own command line options too), consider the output of '--help-plugins'.

nuitka: error: no such option: --help-plugins-run

nuitka: error: no such option: --help-plugins-run

EXAMPLES
Compile a Python file "some_module.py" to a module "some_module.so":

    $ nuitka --module some_module.py

Compile a Python program "some_program.py" to an executable "some_program.exe":

    $ nuitka some_program.py

Compile a Python program "some_program.py" and the package "some_package" it uses to an executable "some_program.exe":

    $ nuitka --follow-import--to=some_package some_program.py

Compile a Python program "some_program.py" and all the modules it uses to an executable "some_program.exe". Then execute it immediately when ready:

    $ nuitka --run --follow-imports some_program.py

Compile a Python program "some_program.py" and the modules it uses (even standard library) to an executable "some_program.exe":

    $ nuitka --recurse-all --follow-stdlib some_program.py

Compile a Python program "some_program.py" and the modules it uses to an executable "some_program.exe". Keep the debug information, so valgrind, gdb, etc. work nicely. Note: This will *not* degrade performance:

    $ nuitka --unstripped --follow-imports some_program.py

Compile a Python program "some_program.py" and the modules it uses to an executable "some_program.exe". Perform all kinds of checks about correctness of the generated C and run-time checks. Note: This will degrade performance and should only be used to debug Nuitka:

    $ nuitka --debug --follow-imports some_program.py

Compile a Python program "some_program.py" and the modules it uses to an executable "some_program.exe". Perform all kinds of checks about correctness of the generated C and run-time checks. Also use the debug Python library, which does its own checks. Note: This will degrade performance and should only be used to debug Nuitka:

    $ nuitka --debug --python-debug --follow-imports some_program.py
