`buildcmd`	Command for building the package (e.g. for custom builds resulting in a whl file). When using setup.py this will be passed to setup.py and defaults to ‘build’. Otherwise it will be used as-is. A value of None then skips the build step. The template %(python)s will be replace by the currently used Python binary.	`None`
`check_ldshared`	Check Python value of $LDSHARED, correct if needed to “$CC -shared”	`None`
`download_dep_fail`	Fail if downloaded dependencies are detected	`None`
`install_src`	Source path to pass to the install command (e.g. a whl file).Defaults to ‘.’ for unpacked sources or the first source file specified	`None`
`install_target`	Option to pass to setup.py	`"install"`
`options`	Dictionary with extension options.	`{}`
`pip_ignore_installed`	Let pip ignore installed Python packages (i.e. don’t remove them)	`True`
`pip_no_index`	Pass –no-index to pip to disable connecting to PyPi entirely which also disables the pip version check. Enabled by default when pip_ignore_installed=True	`None`
`req_py_majver`	Required major Python version (only relevant when using system Python)	`None`
`req_py_minver`	Required minor Python version (only relevant when using system Python)	`None`
`runtest`	Run unit tests.	`True`
`sanity_pip_check`	Run ‘pip check’ to ensure all required Python packages are installed and check for any package with an invalid (0.0.0) version.	`False`
`source_urls`	List of URLs for source files	`['https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/%(nameletter)s/%(name)s']`
`unpack_sources`	Unpack sources prior to build/install. Defaults to ‘True’ except for whl files	`None`
`unversioned_packages`	List of packages that don’t have a version at all, i.e. show 0.0.0	`[]`
`use_pip`	Install using ‘pip install –prefix=%(prefix)s %(installopts)s %(loc)s’	`None`
`use_pip_editable`	Install using ‘pip install –editable’	`False`
`use_pip_extras`	String with comma-separated list of ‘extras’ to install via pip	`None`
`use_pip_for_deps`	Install dependencies using ‘pip install –prefix=%(prefix)s %(installopts)s %(loc)s’	`False`
`use_pip_requirement`	Install using ‘pip install –requirement’. The sources is expected to be the requirements file.	`False`
`zipped_egg`	Install as a zipped eggs	`False`
