Registering the package

To register the package and deploy the initial release to PyPI, do:

python setup.py register -r pypi
python setup.py sdist upload -r pypi

Deploying a new release

So you’ve made some cool new improvements to your Python package and you want to deploy a new release. It’s just a few easy steps.

1. After your package modules have been updated, you have to update the version number in your setup.py file. The format is major.minor.micro depending on what you changed. For example, a small bug fix to v0.2.3 would increment to v0.2.4 while a new feature might increment to v0.3.0.
2. Then make sure all the changes are committed and pushed to Github.
3. Build with python setup.py sdist
4. Twine with twine upload dist/compressed_package_filename

That’s it!
