Created Package But Cannot Use It From Pypi

This started from here, but has changed so much I felt I had to start another question. I created a package (thompcoUtils) with python 3: setup.py: import setuptools with open('RE

Solution 1:

OK, after many trials and tribulations to get everything just right, it turns out it isn't very hard.

created a folder with the following files and single sub-folder (thompcoutils - the name should be the name of your package):

./LICENSE
./install.sh
./thompcoutils
./thompcoutils/logging.py
./thompcoutils/os.py
./thompcoutils/__init__.py
./README.md
./setup.py

install.sh is a helper script to build and install the package into pypi.org:

#!/bin/bash
build=1
clean=1
if [[ $# -gt 0 ]]
thenif [[ $1=="clean" ]]
  then
   build=0
  fifiif [[ $clean -eq 1 ]]
thenrm -rf dist
  rm -rf build
  rm -f *.whl
  rm -rf *.egg-info
fiif [[ $build -eq 1 ]]
then
  python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
  twine upload --repository pypi  dist/*
fi

The package name is thompcoutils as defined by the sub-folder name and the setup.py file.

Here is the setup.py:

import setuptools

withopen("README.md", "r") as fh:
    long_description = fh.read()

setuptools.setup(
    name="thompcoutils",
    version="0.0.16",
    author="Jordan Thompson",
    author_email="Jordan@ThompCo.com",
    description="Another collection of utilities",
    long_description=long_description,
    long_description_content_type="text/markdown",
    url="https://github.com/pypa/sampleproject",
    packages=setuptools.find_packages(),
    install_requires=[
        'psutil', 'netifaces'
    ],
    classifiers=[
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3",
        "License :: OSI Approved :: MIT License",
        "Operating System :: OS Independent",
    ],
)

exclude_package_data = {'': ['install.sh']},

Note that you have to increment the version every time you push to the cloud. I hope this will help someone in the future (and serve as a reminder to me ;-)
