Release instructions

Preparations

First, generate an API token for your account or project

1. Go to https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/.
2. Set Token name to pypi and select Scope Entire account.
3. Click Create token and copy the token.
4. Follow the instructions on the page to store the token in ~/.pypirc.

Here is an example of ~/.pypirc configuration file:

[distutils]
index-servers =
    pypi
    testpypi

[pypi]
username = __token__
password = <TOKEN>

[testpypi]
repository = https://test.pypi.org/legacy/
username = <USER>

Install dependencies for publishing:

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r dev-requirements.txt

Test build

flit build

Upload release to testpypi

Testpypi is for testing the release process.

git reset --hard
flit publish --repository testpypi

Packages can be deleted from test.pypi.org but NOT reuploaded with the same version. To delete, go to https://test.pypi.org/manage/projects/, click manage on package and delete.

When happy with the results, proceed with publishing to pypi.
