My PyPI Release Checklist
Raw
pypi-release-checklist.md
  • Update HISTORY.rst
  • Commit the changes:
git add HISTORY.rst
git commit -m "Changelog for upcoming release 0.1.1."
  • Update version number (can also be minor or major)
bumpversion patch
  • Install the package again for local development, but with the new version number:
python setup.py develop
  • Run the tests:
tox
  • Release on PyPI by uploading both sdist and wheel:
python setup.py sdist upload
python setup.py bdist_wheel upload
  • Test that it pip installs:
mktmpenv
pip install my_project
<try out my_project>
deactivate
  • Push: git push
  • Push tags: git push --tags
  • Check the PyPI listing page to make sure that the README, release notes, and roadmap display properly. If not, copy and paste the RestructuredText into http://rst.ninjs.org/ to find out what broke the formatting.
  • Edit the release on GitHub (e.g. https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter/releases). Paste the release notes into the release's release page, and come up with a title for the release.
