Python 打包 - 如何生成 python 鸡蛋目录名称，如“myapp-0.2a40-py3.9-linux-x86_64.egg”？

Question

I installed a python package My-App with python setup.py install and an egg directory My_App-0.2a40-py3.9-linux-x86_64.egg is created under my site-packages .

I looked up setuptools docs and source code and some PEPs trying to figure out how the egg dir name My_App-0.2a40-py3.9-linux-x86_64.egg is generated, but I didn't find anything relavent.

So how is the python egg dir name like My_App-0.2a40-py3.9-linux-x86_64.egg generated?

• How does My-App package name in the setup.py get converted to My_App in the dir name?
• py3.9-linux-x86_64 looks like a platform tag, but not exactly - it doesn't contain cp39 etc. I want to know how this is generated.

The doc https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/deprecated/python_eggs.html points out the functions used to construct the egg dir name.
