setuptools-twine

This package adds twine_check and twine_upload commands to setuptools. These commands are equivalent to running twine check or twine upload, but always operate on the latest source distribution and wheel generated by setup.py sdist and setup.py bdist_wheel.

Basic Usage

Install with pip:

pip install setuptools-twine

If you only want to simply your workflow that currently uses twine check or twine upload, you can invoke the setup.py commands manually:

python setup.py twine_check
python setup.py twine_upload

Note that you no longer need to specify the dist/* files as with twine check or twine upload; they are determined automatically from the results of the sdist and bdist_wheel commands.

Advanced Usage

If you're a package author or maintainer looking to automate even more, you can add setuptools-twine as a setup_requires dependency in your project's setup.cfg:

[options]
setup_requires =
    setuptools-twine

Then, create an alias command to encapsulate multiple setup.py commands in one:

[aliases]
pypi_upload = clean sdist bdist_wheel twine_check twine_upload

Now, you can build, check, and upload with a single command:

python setup.py pypi_upload

Roadmap

• Allow passing additional options to twine_check and twine_upload commands.
• Allow using only source distributions or wheels, instead of both.
• Allow uploading other output formats in addition to source distributions and wheels.
