Release
Closed this issue · 10 comments
@BibMartin once you think it is ready let's create the release and a PyPI entry. I can to the latter for you.
@ocefpaf I've tried to create the release branch, but it does not create any branch ; just a tag. Is that good enough ?
I planned to have a v0.1 branch where each commit would be tagged v0.1.0, v0.1.1 etc.
As for the PyPi part, I'd be interested to do it. I guess I'll need to ask for help.

- Create an account at https://pypi.python.org/pypi
python setup.py register# It will show up at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/brancapython setup.py sdist --formats=gztar upload# to upload the source distribution
That is basically it. There are a few details here and there that I don't remember, but you'll figure it out 😉
Note that it is good to test the source distribution and the metadata before uploading. I usually do a python setup.py check and a python setup.py sdist followed by a pip install of the result to make sure everything works.
Is that good enough?
Yep. That is the simplest way to do it. Complex packages might want a more complex release process, but that is good enough for me.
I've finally created the branch v0.1 and the release v0.1.0. I think this will be useful if we need to put hotfixes.
As for PyPi, I've created the repo in using (I write that for keeping a track):
python setup.py register
Then I got the packages in doing:
python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
At last pushed to PyPi with:
twine upload dist/*
(as recommended by https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/distributing/#upload-your-distributions)
@ocefpaf I've set you as owner of branca so that we can both maintain it.
python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
Feeling old now 😒
I cannot see it at PyPI yet. Can you check on your end if everything when smoothly?
PS: I don't know if the bdist_wheel + twine also uploads the source distribution. If not you might consider also doing python setup.py sdist --formats=gztar upload. Some tools/users need to download the source and then build.

It seems it's not found by search engine ; but you can go directly to https://pypi.python.org/pypi/branca

It has created and uploaded a tar.gz ; but I didn't use the option --formats=gztar. I hope this is good anyway 😬

Looks good! But what is that 0.0.0 at the bottom coming from?

That is good. Some people like zip to be Windows friendly, but tar.gz is no longer a difficulty on Windows.

This is "the text" of CHANGES.txt. I update this asap.
I had to do a v0.1.1 release (you cannot delete and re-upload a release on PyPi) but it looks better.

That was allowed in the past (man do I feel old today) but it is a good thing they no longer allow it.
