The Python Package Index (PyPI) holds meta-data describing distributions
|

packaged with distutils. The distutils command :command:`register` is used to

submit your distribution's meta-data to the index. It is invoked as follows::

The `Python Package Index (PyPI)`_ holds :ref:`meta-data <meta-data>`
|
||||
describing distributions packaged with distutils, as well as package data like
|
||||
distribution files if the package author wishes.
|
||||
|
||||
Distutils exposes two commands for submitting package data to PyPI: the
|
||||
:ref:`register <package-register>` command for submitting meta-data to PyPI
|
||||
and the :ref:`upload <package-upload>` command for submitting distribution
|
||||
files. Both commands read configuration data from a special file called the
|
||||
:ref:`.pypirc file <pypirc>`. PyPI :ref:`displays a home page
|
||||
<package-display>` for each package created from the ``long_description``
|
||||
submitted by the :command:`register` command.

|

|
||||
The distutils command :command:`upload` pushes the distribution files to PyPI.
|
||||
|
||||
The command is invoked immediately after building one or more distribution
|
||||
files. For example, the command ::
|
||||
|
||||
python setup.py sdist bdist_wininst upload
|
||||
|
||||
will cause the source distribution and the Windows installer to be uploaded to
|
||||
PyPI. Note that these will be uploaded even if they are built using an earlier
|
||||
invocation of :file:`setup.py`, but that only distributions named on the command
|
||||
line for the invocation including the :command:`upload` command are uploaded.
|
||||
|
||||
The :command:`upload` command uses the username, password, and repository URL
|
||||
from the :file:`$HOME/.pypirc` file (see section :ref:`pypirc` for more on this
|
||||
file). If a :command:`register` command was previously called in the same command,
|
||||
and if the password was entered in the prompt, :command:`upload` will reuse the
|
||||
entered password. This is useful if you do not want to store a clear text
|
||||
password in the :file:`$HOME/.pypirc` file.
|
||||
|
||||
You can specify another PyPI server with the ``--repository=url`` option::
|
||||
|
||||
python setup.py sdist bdist_wininst upload -r http://example.com/pypi
|
||||
|
||||
See section :ref:`pypirc` for more on defining several servers.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the ``--sign`` option to tell :command:`upload` to sign each
|
||||
uploaded file using GPG (GNU Privacy Guard). The :program:`gpg` program must
|
||||
be available for execution on the system :envvar:`PATH`. You can also specify
|
||||
which key to use for signing using the ``--identity=name`` option.
|
||||
|
||||
Other :command:`upload` options include ``--repository=url`` or
|
||||
``--repository=section`` where *url* is the url of the server and
|
||||
*section* the name of the section in :file:`$HOME/.pypirc`, and
|
||||
``--show-response`` (which displays the full response text from the PyPI
|
||||
server for help in debugging upload problems).

the server to display a home page for the registered package.

If you use the `reStructuredText <http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html>`_

The ``long_description`` field can be attached to a text file located

long_description = file.read()

|

setup(name='Distutils',
|
||||
long_description=long_description)
|
||||
|
||||
In that case, :file:`README.txt` is a regular reStructuredText text file located
|
||||
in the root of the package besides :file:`setup.py`.
|
||||
|
||||
To prevent registering broken reStructuredText content, you can use the
|
||||
:program:`rst2html` program that is provided by the :mod:`docutils` package and
|
||||
check the ``long_description`` from the command line::
|
||||
|
||||
$ python setup.py --long-description | rst2html.py > output.html
|
||||
|
||||
:mod:`docutils` will display a warning if there's something wrong with your
|
||||
syntax. Because PyPI applies additional checks (e.g. by passing ``--no-raw``
|
||||
to ``rst2html.py`` in the command above), being able to run the command above
|
||||
without warnings does not guarantee that PyPI will convert the content
|
||||
successfully.
