I want to tell setup.py to download release version of other repo that is not python. My target repo has release that can be downloaded using https://github.com/USER/PACKAGE/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.0.zip. This release is not Python code. How can I make setup.py to install that file (just place it, also unzip if zipped, so that my python code can access it)? Note that my python code itself should be able to be published on pypi and installed using pip install mycode
Background:
I have read this, this, and many others question, but can't find the exact solution for my use case.
I need this because some people make python bridge that make it possible to call non python code from python, for example pybind and oct2py
