Upload wheels to PyPI

johnthagen opened this issue · 3 comments

Wheels (.whl) for this package are currently missing from PyPI. Could wheels be uploaded for the current and future releases?

Read more about the advantages of wheels to understand why generating wheel distributions are important.

To create a wheel along with source distribution:

(venv) $ pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
(venv) $ python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel

# See dist/*.whl

To upload wheels:

(venv) $ pip install twine
(venv) $ twine upload dist/*

@lazybird Could you publish a new version of django-solo to PyPI (with a wheel) so that #91 is fixed? Django 4.0 is due in three months and django-solo will not function on that version without a new release.

Thanks.

Hello @johnthagen ,
Thanks for opening this issue and sorry for taking so long to reply. I've just pushed a new release to pypi - using your instructions...

If you have some time to check and let me know if it works, it would be great, I did not check that it's all working...

Thanks again !

This has been resolved in the 1.2.0 release. pip will automatically prefer the wheels, so most users will be automatically using the wheel now.

Thanks!
