[21:38:24] <duckinator> is there a way to build an sdist for a PEP 517-compliant project without a setup.py? i can do `pip wheel .` for wheels, but afaict there's no equivalent for an sdist until `pip build` is implemented ( https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/6041 ) -- is my understanding correct, or is there a method i missed?

[21:39:24] <duckinator> (it's okay if the approach is awkward -- i'm mostly just trying to get a feel for where PEP 517 stuff is, so i can document the things blocking a full PEP 517-style workflow for a project, not necessarily something i can immediately go and use)

[21:42:31] <njs> duckinator: maybe https://pypi.org/project/pep517/ ?

[21:48:40] <duckinator> njs: oh, nice! yeah, that + `python -m pep517.build .` does exactly what i'm looking for (and also handles wheels). thanks! ^^
