python setup.py develop
  • Run the tests:
python setup.py test
tox
  • Commit the changes:
git add .
git commit -m "Release 0.1.1"
  • Build the source distribution:
python setup.py sdist

mktmpenv
cd dist
tar xzvf my_project-0.1.1.tar.gz
cd my_project-0.1.1/
python setup.py install
<try out my_project>
deactivate
  • Release on PyPI:
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
  • Tag the last git commit with the version number:
git tag -a 0.1.1

Put the same message as in HISTORY.rst.

  • 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, use the readme package, installable off of PyPI, to determine why.
  • 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.
