The distutils command +:command:`upload` pushes the distribution files to PyPI. + +The command is invoked immediately after building one or more distribution +files. For example, the command :: + + python setup.py sdist bdist_wininst upload + +will cause the source distribution and the Windows installer to be uploaded to +PyPI. Note that these will be uploaded even if they are built using an earlier +invocation of :file:`setup.py`, but that only distributions named on the command +line for the invocation including the :command:`upload` command are uploaded. + +The :command:`upload` command uses the username, password, and repository URL +from the :file:`$HOME/.pypirc` file (see section :ref:`pypirc` for more on this +file). + +You can use the :option:`--sign` option to tell :command:`upload` to sign each +uploaded file using GPG (GNU Privacy Guard). The :program:`gpg` program must +be available for execution on the system :envvar:`PATH`. You can also specify +which key to use for signing using the :option:`--identity=*name*` option. + +Other :command:`upload` options include :option:`--repository=*url*` (which +lets you override the repository setting from :file:`$HOME/.pypirc`), and +:option:`--show-response` (which displays the full response text from the PyPI +server for help in debugging upload problems). + + |
