set a compile time environment variable
-s, --option NAME=VALUE
set a cythonize option

-+, --cplus Compile as C++ rather than C
-a, --annotate Produce a colorized HTML version of the source.

generated C/C++-code.
-x, --exclude PATTERN
exclude certain file patterns from the compilation
-b, --build build extension modules using distutils/setuptools
-i, --inplace build extension modules in place using distutils/setuptools (implies -b)

-f, --force force recompilation
-q, --quiet be less verbose during compilation
--lenient increase Python compatibility by ignoring some compile time errors
-k, --keep-going compile as much as possible, ignore compilation failures
--no-docstrings strip docstrings
-M, --depfile produce depfiles for the sources
Environment variables:
CYTHON_FORCE_REGEN: if set to 1, forces cythonize to regenerate the output files regardless
of modification times and changes.
CYTHON_CACHE_DIR: the base directory containing Cython's caches.
Environment variables accepted by setuptools are supported to configure the C compiler and build:
