Distribute package as a universal wheel
Wheels are the standard of Python distribution. Advantages of wheels includes:
- Faster installation
- Avoids arbitrary code execution during installation by avoiding setup.py
- Allows better caching for testing and continuous integration
- Creates .pyc files as part of installation to ensure they match the Python interpreter used
- More consistent installs across platforms and machines
When you'd normally run `python setup.py sdist upload`, run instead `python
setup.py sdist bdist_wheel upload`.
For additional information on wheels, see:
https://pythonwheels.com/
Notice ipaddress is listed as one of the top sites without a wheel.
For full details on wheel, see PEP-427:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0427/
The wheel includes the license file by using the [metadata] section in
the setup.cfg file. For additional information on this feature, see:
