<code>--pyoxidizer-args="[&lt;shell_str&gt;, &lt;shell_str&gt;, ...]"</code><br> <code>PANTS_PYOXIDIZER_ARGS</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>[]</code></span>

<br>

## Advanced options

<div style="color: purple">

### `version`

<code>--pyoxidizer-version=<str></code><br> <code>PANTS_PYOXIDIZER_VERSION</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>pyoxidizer==0.18.0</code></span>

<br>

Requirement string for the tool.

<div style="color: purple">

### `extra_requirements`

<code>--pyoxidizer-extra-requirements="['&lt;str&gt;', '&lt;str&gt;', ...]"</code><br> <code>PANTS_PYOXIDIZER_EXTRA_REQUIREMENTS</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>[]</code></span>

<br>

Any additional requirement strings to use with the tool. This is useful if the tool allows you to install plugins or if you need to constrain a dependency to a certain version.

</div> <br>

<div style="color: purple">

### `interpreter_constraints`

<code>--pyoxidizer-interpreter-constraints="['&lt;str&gt;', '&lt;str&gt;', ...]"</code><br> <code>PANTS_PYOXIDIZER_INTERPRETER_CONSTRAINTS</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <pre>[ "CPython&gt;=3.8,&lt;4" ]</pre></span>

<br>

</div> <br>

<div style="color: purple">

### `console_script`

<code>--pyoxidizer-console-script=<str></code><br> <code>PANTS_PYOXIDIZER_CONSOLE_SCRIPT</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>pyoxidizer</code></span>

<br>

The console script for the tool. Using this option is generally preferable to (and mutually exclusive with) specifying an --entry-point since console script names have a higher expectation of staying stable across releases of the tool. Usually, you will not want to change this from the default.

</div> <br>

<div style="color: purple">

### `entry_point`

<code>--pyoxidizer-entry-point=<str></code><br> <code>PANTS_PYOXIDIZER_ENTRY_POINT</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>

<br>

The entry point for the tool. Generally you only want to use this option if the tool does not offer a --console-script (which this option is mutually exclusive with). Usually, you will not want to change this from the default.

</div> <br>

## Deprecated options
